Hi everyone,
was wondering how others deal with the fees from PayPal and banks etc. when passing
them along. I was thinking that a good feature to add to the invoice was for
the client to pick which payment method they would like to use when options are
available. For example A EFT transaction may be cost nothing whereas PayPal charges
higher than say Visa. At this time, without knowing another method I am forced
to contact the client prior to invoicing and offering the choice, to help them
reduce fees, annoying and slowing down the "drive -thru" process.

thanks.
Kind Regards,
Dave

Hi,
you can already select different payment methods for your store, which the buyers
have to select when checkout.
You can also add a comment to each payment method mentioning the fees (if any).
When invoicing, put the fees in the boxes for additional charges #1 and/or #2.
For clarifying also write the fees in your store terms.
