What are the percentages of fees charged per payment type?

For one single fundraiser over the last 2 weeks, we were charged 10.5% in fees.  As of last year, with online card payment transactions, we were only charged less than 4% in fees.  I cannot find the current list of fees per payment type.  Were fees just increased more than double?  This is absurd, please help!

Here are the current fees for square: https://squareup.com/us/en/payments/our-fees 

 

The highest online fee for a customer not on a paid plan is: 

3.3% + 30¢

So if you had an average online transaction amount of 4-5$ then I could see the effective fee rate being around 10%, but that is a very low average transaction amount.   If you are doing 10$ transactions then you are around 6% effective, an 20$ transaction is around the 4.8%.  Hope this helps.
