Why the fee matters

A small fixed fee can make low-ticket transactions surprisingly expensive. For larger invoices, the percentage rate usually drives the cost.

Gross-up carefully

If you want to receive a specific net amount, calculate the gross charge first and confirm whether passing processing fees to customers is allowed in your situation.
