Service Charge vs. Tax

Since you're unable to add a card processing fee or service charge to a checkout through Square Appointments - Can you make a tax titled "Card Processing Fee" and add it that way to a service in Square Appointments?

Hello @shelleyjo

Adding a processing fee in Square Appointments is at the moment a feature request.

We wouldn't recommend adding a tax to your services, as this would affect your reports and might get confusing when you need to calculate taxes.

The fees Square charges you as a merchant are considered part of your operating costs and we encourage you to consider them when setting your prices.

Thank you!
