Adding a card fee on orders

Bopple partners with Stripe to offer heavily discounted payment processing fees, which you can optionally add to customer orders.

Whether you choose to absorb payment processing costs, or pass them on to customers, you benefit from Bopple's partnership with Stripe and the discounted payment processing rates this provides. 

Pass on payment processing costs

You can, as needed, apply various types of fees at checkout. One of the most common fees is a card fee, used to cover your payment processing costs. 

Operating in Australia? 

Card fees are allowed, but they must not be excessive. That means any card fee you apply shouldn’t be higher than what it costs you to process the payment. With Stripe via Bopple, this is 1.6% per transaction.

How card fees are shown to customers

Once you set up your card fee, it will be calculated based on the total payment due and added to the payment amount. This is clearly displayed to customers in the checkout flow.
