Peter Luger Charge Card

ways2go — Tue, 05 Apr 2016 01:23:57 GMT

I was watching a show on tv about steak houses. The Peter Luger steakhouse in N.Y.C. was on it. They don't take credit cards , but their own. I was wondering, if anyone had one and what their criteria would be to get one.

Its just a house account, not a card. you have to be credit worthy in there eyes. probably easier to use a debit card, I mean who wants a hp to eat a steak. good steaks though

What's the point in issuing your own card? I am curious how they decided that they want to issue their own charge cards.

Lower fees and fewer headaches with charge disputes.

Yeah, but it would be one of those unusual cards you could show off, especially if you don't even live close to new york.

I don't know may be its just me but I wouldn't want to show off a card that I can use at only one place however exclusive it may look.

Also is eating steak worth the HP? I mean they do accept debit cards.

How would you even process such cards? I am genuinely curious say for example I open a shop and say I issue my own cards, how would I even process that?

Why would I want the headache of being PCI complaint.

Yea I have gone a couple of times over the years. It is more hype than anything else. Steaks are good, but nothing to lose your mind over and certainly not worth a HP heh. I had way better steaks in Buenos Aires, Argentina (the Argentinian beef was soo tender and it was a fraction of the cost) and Florence, Italy. I'd like to try Keens steakhouse though.

Isn't PCI compliance required by Visa/MC? If you accept Visa/MC you need to be PCI compliant. If you aren't taking credit cards you don't have to be PCI compliant.

To process you just add up their tab and send them a bill. They send you a check, Nothing complicated. No charge backs. No guarantee of payment.

According to the application, you give them your amex, visa, or MC information as well. Your charge is payable in full as soon as you get the bill in your maik. According to the app after 120 days not paid, they are able to charge your credit card. So I really don't understand the no c.c., but they only run credit under failure to pay.

So what they are saying is, too keep a tab open with us till you get a bill let us HP you. That sounds worse than I thought!

It sounds like it's meant to be a way for people to keep track of their business entertaining expenses there, providing a paper trail that cash doesn't offer. I think they intend this card to be for people who spend several hundred or thousands of dollars there a month.

That makes sense. Business lunches/dinners and a whole lotta meat sweats.

Unless it has rewards and you eat a lot of steak use a cash back card at 1.5 or 2% restaurants.
