Hi 👋 no, there isn't a way to get the Stripe fee that will be assess for a payment before making the payment. The best path there if you'd like to do this is to work with our Support team to fully understand the fee structure for your account, and then write your own logic to estimate those fees.

Alright, thanks. Or is there a way to retrieve the fee after making the payment?

Yup, after making the payment the fee is shown in the Balance Transaction object that is created:
https://docs.stripe.com/api/balance_transactions/object#balance_transaction_object-fee
For Subscriptions, you get to that object by:
- Finding the Invoice you want to look at the fee for and find it's related Payment Intent
https://docs.stripe.com/api/invoices/object#invoice_object-payment_intent - Find the Charge associated with that Payment Intent
https://docs.stripe.com/api/payment_intents/object#payment_intent_object-latest_charge - Then get the Balance Transaction for that Charge
https://docs.stripe.com/api/charges/object#charge_object-balance_transaction
You can leverage expand to get all of those in objects returned inline in a single request:
