V12 Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Hi, I'd like to know how I can charge the PayPal fee as surcharge upon checkout? I've searched and looked around quite a bit but can't seem to find the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Patron Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 IMHO...you should build it into your product price and not tack on an additional fee to the customer....for many forms of payment maybe no paypal, it is against their terms and conditions to do so.

V12 Posted October 1, 2012 Author Share Posted October 1, 2012 (edited) Well I take 3 forms of Payment, if you look at the average order value the Fee is considerable, a €60 PP fee isn't unusual. Currently it's incorporated in the VAT pricing (ex, 21% + 3.9%) But that's unfair for VAT pay customers that opt for bank transfer. Nether is it help full for international sales where VAT does not apply Edited October 1, 2012 by V12 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camila.254 Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 (edited) I use this module: https://addons.prestashop.com/en/other-payment-methods/28289-payment-with-fee-paypal-stripe-cod-bank-wire-etc.html It allows to add a fee amount (by percentage or a fixed a mount) to official Paypal module as well as any other payment modules of Prestashop. You can try it. Edited July 19, 2019 by camila.254 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Patron Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 payment with 'fee' is bad idea and visitors don't like it and in many cases depending on country violates payment gateway terms. i've never really gotten why anyone would do this, you lose sales.... just saying, el Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blerim.krosi Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 I think every shop has to do this, paypal fee is to high, and customers like paypal for stupied reasons they "trust" paypal but not the shop, actually every serious shop has to do it.. let customers trust us because we are serious not because we use paypal. so if thy like to pay by paypal to feel better let them pay the fee.

Janett Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 (edited) Keep in mind the following PayPal policy which prohibits surcharges... Quote No surcharges You agree that you will not impose a surcharge or any other fee for accepting PayPal as a payment method. You may charge a handling fee in connection with the sale of goods or services as long as the handling fee does not operate as a surcharge and is not higher than the handling fee you charge for non-PayPal transactions. https://www.paypal.com/ga/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full#accept-payment So if one of your customer open a Dispute or a claim on PayPal, you will be in fault and you will lose the money.

Probably easier to reward people with a discount for paying via bank transfer. That would be completely acceptable in terms of PP user agreement.
