hello! do you have an example payment id for me to see how your integration currently works?

ok
let me give you an example
seller has a product of $100
2.9% + 30 cents is stripe fee
what happens is $100 is being paid by the buyer and the stripe fee needs to be paid by the seller
which is $3.2 in this case
what our seller sometimes want is that the stripe fee $3.2 is to also to be paid by buyer
so seller can get whole $100
as currently $96.8 is the net

you'll need to calculate that into the amount to charge the customer : https://support.stripe.com/questions/passing-the-stripe-fee-on-to-customers
there's no automatic feature to do so

I did that but stripe again calculates the fee on the amount to be charged 😦
for example if seller adds the fee and make $100 to $103.2 to be charged from client
stripe calculates fee on $103.2 instead of $100
and deducts more fee what seller calculated

In essence, you have you charge the customer more in order to pass on the fee. That page should take into account the fee that is charged on the new amount
i'm not going to be able to help you with the detailed calculation here i'm afraid

but even then it's a recursive process as %age is involved
doesn't matter what the charge is, stripe fee goes on increasing because %age of increased price will always be more what was already calculated
for example
on 100$ 50% is the fee
so If seller tries to charge $150
stripe fee will increase to $75 from $50 as total charged amount is now $150 not $100
as now 75 is the 50% of 150

you can try reaching out to Stripe Support ( https://support.stripe.com/contact) to see if they're able to help you with the calculations, this isn't something which I have the expertise to help you since we mainly help with developers who want to integrate directly with the Stripe API here on this channel
