Fee pass-through lets you decide who covers the processing fee when you make a sale. You can choose this during checkout, which gives you control over your margins whether you're selling in person or remotely.

This option is available on Tap to Pay and Payment Links. On each sale, you can either absorb the processing cost yourself or pass it through to the customer.

Instead of taking the fee out of your sale amount, Jim adjusts the total so the customer covers the processing cost. If you prefer, you can keep the customer-facing price unchanged and absorb the fee yourself.

It's per sale, so you can decide case by case. No commitment, no default you're stuck with.

If you leave the toggle off, you absorb the fee and the customer sees the exact price you entered.

Fee pass-through can be useful when:

Your customer sees the exact sale amount you entered. The processing fee is deducted from your payout.

Jim adjusts the final total so the customer pays the sale amount plus the processing cost.

Can I change my mind after the sale?

No. Fee pass-through is set before the sale goes through. Once the customer pays, the fee setup is locked for that sale.

Does fee pass-through work with tipping?

Yes. You can turn on both tipping and fee pass-through on the same sale. The tip is added first, then the fee is calculated on the new total (sale + tip), or passed through on top.

Is fee pass-through on by default?

No. It's off by default, so you absorb the fee unless you turn it on for a sale.

Does the customer see the fee as a line item?

When you pass the fee through, the customer sees the adjusted total. How it's displayed depends on the checkout screen, but the final amount reflects the fee.
