This is explained here: https://docs.stripe.com/expand/use-cases#stripe-fee-for-payment

That code will get you the fee associated with the payment, and then can do the 'net' sum in your code (e.g. payment amount, minus fee)

Thx @vocal rock

[vocal rock]

This is the property: https://docs.stripe.com/api/balance_transactions/object#balance_transaction_object-fee

[outer warren]

I want to double confirm when to call this stripe-fee.
Can I get the info charges before client make payment?

Because I trying now, the LatestCharge is null

[vocal rock]

No, only after the payment is confirmed

[outer warren]

Then how the customer know get charged how much

[vocal rock]

Balance Transaction only exists once the funds have been processed. Prior to that, there's no automatic way to know the exact fee for a payment

[outer warren]

So you mean client wont know get charged how much?

[vocal rock]

I don't know what you mean. Who's the customer?

[outer warren]

The payer

[vocal rock]

Why would they need to know about the Stripe fee?

[outer warren]

I want all the cost bare by payer

[vocal rock]

The amount param you set here on creation is what the customer says and was is debited from their card/account

[vocal rock]

The payer doesn't pay the Stripe fee, you (the Stripe merchant) does

It's taken automatically from payment amount. e.g. $5.00 - n (n being Stripe fee)

[outer warren]

so if I want to do so, I need to calculate the stripe fee by my own?
Can I have the info of stripe fee estimation?

In-order that I can charge payer up-front

[vocal rock]

There's no easy way to do that no. Generally people just do a flat fee on top of their payment amount

[outer warren]

Sorry to ask stupid question, do you have the flat fee examples most your customer do? Like 3% or % + fix amount?

[vocal rock]

I don't. But you can use our pricing in your country to inform that
