Adding Credit and Debit charges

Is there a way to automatically add a charge for using credit and debit sales through the POS register?

Hey @FelbosFranks,

 

Thanks for being a member of the Community.

 

Square's fee is taken from the total amount of the transaction – including tax, tips, and any added surcharges. A surcharge is a fee added to the bill when a buyer pays with a credit card to cover the cost of payment processing fees. This varies from a Convenience Fee, which covers the costs of accepting payment outside of a merchant's usual channel (e.g., by phone instead of in-store), no matter the payment method used.

 

I hope this helps.

With any luck, Square will have a surcharge calculator set up for Canadian retailers soon.  We'd only be allowed to charge up to 2.4%  though,  not the full 2.6% processing fee, plus 10cents transaction fee.

How do I charge a customer the transaction fee on the square register in a convenience store then?

At this time Square doesn't offer the ability to pass the processing fee to the customer @FelbosFranks. Thank you for sharing your interest.
