Note on Fees

Note: HitPay transaction fees are applied on the final amount, after the surcharge fee has been added.

Example:

• A product is $100
• You’ve set a 5% fees
• The final amount on the payment page will reflect $105
• HitPay transaction fees are then applied on $105 (Not$100) Hence, do set the % accordingly.

FAQs

Can I pass the exact fees that HitPay charges to the user?

No, it is not possible to pass the exact fees that HitPay charges because the fees depend on various factors that are hard to predict before the payment. It is recommended that you set an approximate fee based on your average order value. You can use the example widget to view the approximate values.
