jrcarr Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 Site URL: https://mintcreekfarm.com Our small farm recently switched to Squarespace Commerce. Our sales channels are Squarespace Commerce on our website and Squarespace POS (at farmer's markets). I would like to pass on the cost of merchant processing to our customers by adding a 3% card processing charge on the (pre-tax) total of all orders that have payment processed through Stripe, PayPal, and Square (which we only use via Squarespace POS). So, is there a way we could implement a 3% automatic charge on all sales before tax, that could be easily removed for a given order (for example, when we're doing a Squarespace POS cash sale)?

mrszorak44 Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 Hi guys, hope someone could help me. In Stripe, how do you pass through your Stripe transaction fees to your customers? Stripe charges in the total transaction fee, which in my case will include shipping. If my shop is set up to calculate shipping fees via weight, then how will I take Stripe fees into account? It would be easier if I were charging a flat shipping fee, but I don't. Appreciate all the help! Link to comment

You cannot impose charges specifically for electronic payment services. In fact, in many countries it is illegal to do this. Transaction fees should be considered general business operating costs and absorbed into your general pricing, not added at the checkout.

GeneralGablans Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Did you ever find a way to solve for this? Link to comment
GeneralGablans Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 If anyone stumbles on this post, SquareSpace does not have this functionality. The way I solved is: 1. Accept the whole payment, send it to QB 2. Use Zapier to send over to GSheets and calculate % 3. Use Zapier to send % for Pay, pay vendor with QB. Would be interested to find out about other designs.
