How Stripe Fees Work
Stripe charges a fee for each transaction processed through its platform. The fee structure typically includes:
- Percentage Fee:
- A percentage of the transaction amount (e.g., 2.9%).
- Fixed Fee:
- A flat fee per transaction (e.g., $0.30).
The exact fees may vary depending on:
- Country or region.
- Type of payment (e.g., card payments, ACH transfers, or international payments).
- Additional services (e.g., currency conversion).
Common Fee Formula
For domestic card payments in the U.S.: Net Amount=Gross Amount−(Gross Amount×0.029+0.30)\text{Net Amount} = \text{Gross Amount} - (\text{Gross Amount} \times 0.029 + 0.30)
For example, for a $100 transaction: Net Amount=100−(100×0.029+0.30)=100−2.90−0.30=96.80\text{Net Amount} = 100 - (100 \times 0.029 + 0.30) = 100 - 2.90 - 0.30 = 96.80
