A 6663 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Establishes the "New York junk fee prevention act"

This bill requires businesses selling goods or services in New York to clearly display the total price - including all mandatory fees - before a consumer pays. It defines "mandatory fees" as charges consumers can’t easily avoid (like default add-ons), while excluding taxes, delivery costs based on consumer choice, and optional extras. Businesses must show this total price prominently in ads and during checkout, ensuring it stands out from other text. Violations could lead to fines up to $1,000 per incident, enforced by the Attorney General, with exemptions for certain financial services and federal-compliant broadband/cable providers.
