Yes. Bank Of America will. They just charged me 4% of the total transferred. It shows on my statement as “CASH EQUIVALENT-TRANSACTION FEE”. I made a stupid mistake when sending money via Apple Pay a couple days ago as the first option shown was Credit Card instead of debit, plus quick fingerprint verification. I didn’t read well and thought it was the same credit/debit (as if you were purchasing in a retail store) then I got scr**ed. Apple Pay deducted 2% instantly and then the bank charged me 4% today. Don’t do it. Use debit. Tomorrow first thing in the morning I’ll go to the bank and cover this with cash or else who knows what else they’ll charge me. I just read Cash advances are charged interest per day from the Moment you take them! I think Apple Pay should add clear warnings about this and additional pop-ups before you actually confirm a credit transaction. As it is right now is a pretty ambiguous trap!

Yes. I called Apple Support and they were clueless as to what I was talking about. There is no way they can compete with PayPal or other P2P services with getting hit twice (3% by Apple and then again by the credit card company.) Apple is coding it as a cash advance rather than a purchase as PayPal does.
Hi
I suggest that you contact your credit card issuer and ask them.
Any such charges from your card issuer aside, note that Apple Pay Cash charges a 3% credit card fee on any amount that are funded by your credit card:
Send, receive, and request money with Apple Pay - Apple Support
Will my credit card company charge me a cash advance fee if I use my credit card on Apple Pay Cash
