To further configure the module go to Extras → Plugins → Gateway Charges

Here you can setup custom fees for each gateway activated in your system. The fees can either be a percentage value, calculated from the total price or fixed amount. The fees will be added to the client invoice:

• Percent is added to the invoice based on the total amount of the invoice
• Amount is added to the invoice

For example:

Percent = 3%
Amount = $ 0.40 USD
Invoice total = $ 7.00 USD

...

Final Invoice Total = ( 7.00 * 3% ) + 0.40 = $ 7.61 USD
