Payment Gateway Based Fees

Add fees to orders based on payment method

The Payment Gateway Based Fees extension enables you to add a fee to an order, depending on the chosen payment gateway.

The fee can be automatically assessed on the price of certain products in the cart or the cart total, in addition to being changed on an order by the shop administrator at any time. A fee may also be applied manually, i.e., if the customer wants to switch payment methods after checkout is completed.

General options overview:

• Enable/Disable additional fees for entire website without removing data
• Enable additional fees for a single gateway or a single product
• Automatic calculation of fees for each gateway or each product
• Change the automatically calculated fee on the order page
• Option to manually add a fee to an order, after the user completes checkout
• Option to manually add a fee to orders you create on the admin page
• Define a maximum limit to which a fee is added at the cart level
• Define a maximum limit to which a fee is added for a product
• Tax calculation for additional fees is also supported
• Three calculation methods:
  1. “Fixed amount”: Adds a fixed amount
  2. “add % to total amount”: Adds a percentage depending on the total amount of the product price or order total
  3. “include % in total amount”: The fee is calculated as a commission rate (you will be payed the total amount of the order)
• WPML compatible – fee caption/title can be translated (requires WPML 4.2.8 or later)

The Payment Gateway Based Fees extension is currently not compatible with the automated taxes service of the Jetpack plugin. Please select “Disable automated taxes” (Tax tab) on the WooCommerce settings page. We will support this feature as soon as third party developers can hook into the automated tax calculation.
