Kairouz Bros ask Australia to make its card surcharge ban make sense

The short followed the Coogee Beach and Coke videos as the channel's third fast start in three days, and its comment section filled with talk of banks, cash and pricier lunches.

Australia banning card surcharges… make it make sense 😭

A new short from Kairouz Bros usually opens to around 6,500 views on its first day. "Australia banning card surcharges… make it make sense 😭" had passed 95,000 in nineteen hours, on course for about sixteen times that.

The subject is Australia's move to stop businesses adding a fee when customers pay by card, and the title already shows where the channel stands: puzzled. The comment section, which on a usual short gets a handful of replies, ran into the hundreds. One much-liked thread points out what the rule does and does not touch: banks still charge businesses their fees, and businesses can no longer list that cost separately. Others ask whether the banks should carry the fee themselves, or float the return of cash and discounts for paying with it. A few report that prices at their regular lunch or coffee spot went up instead.

It makes three in a row for the channel, after the Coogee Beach question and "Ordering a normal Coke in 2026." Between them, the brothers still found time for an energy drink review and a combat sports talk show with Tyson Fury, Anthony Joshua and the UFC on the agenda. A surcharge ban is a long way from a fight card, but the same comic's eye for an everyday annoyance runs through the Coke and Coogee videos too.
