I see ApplicationFeeAmount as a property in the PaymentIntentCreateOptions but I am not sure if that's deducted or added to the final amount I send in. And that it's not also billed against for the transaction

#

The balance highlighted here has the fee included as part of the invoice, and therefor unsure of the purple box

#

Currently, NOT USING THE APPLICATION FEE AMOUNT - I am billing 9.99 + fee
Stripe is billing 10.56 + fee which causes the fee amount to be under by 2 cents

Hi! Looking into this!

#

It is deducted from the charge amount.

north island
#

OK - so it's deducted. I charge the full amount and it is deducted before applying the Stripe fees.

#

I don't see where that's obvious in the docs

ionic flume
#

For destination charge it is deducted from the balance sent to the connected account.

north island
#

got it

#

hmm...OK - reading what y sent, doesn;t do what I need

#

maybe it soe...I'll try it in test. Thanks!

north island
#

It seems that the application fee is not what I am looking for

#

It's amore like application fees that things like Uber Eats charges

#

What I need is the following:

I charge 10
Stripe charges .58
I want the customer to be billed 10.58

#

If I try this today, Stripe then charges me fees on 10.58, which results in underpayment

ionic flume
#

You wish to charge the customer for the Stripe fee and not the connected account?

north island
#

Correct.

#

(I don't have ocnnected account) this is a direct charge account

ionic flume
#

There is no built in option to pass Stripe fee directly to your customer. You need to do the calculations yourself to determine the Stripe fee and what to charge your customer. Do note that there are many variables to take into account such as the payment method, domestic vs. international cards, and possibly more. We typically don't recommend doing this due to the complexity. Additionally, different countries have different regulations on passing fees to the customer, so you should ensure that it's allowed in the country you're processing in.

Yep, we're aware of that and we have a line item for the fees on the invoice. It's US domestic charges.

The issue I am running into and let me know if there's a workaround is that I am paying fees on the fees...

10 + (fees of 56) = 1056
1056 * fees = 58
I underbilled by 2 cents, but that will always be the case

ionic flume

Yes, there is a chance you will be paying fees on the fees which is why the calculation is complex.
