Surcharges

CheckoutChamp offers basic surcharge calculations. Investigate our integration with InterPayments for advanced credit card surcharge situations.

Surcharge is calculated on all products. There is no option to make a surcharge specific to a product or group of products.


Surcharges

Surcharges are calculated on Sale and Authorize transactions. Surcharges are calculated on all payment types, subject to the Pay Source condition below. This means surcharge is calculated on cards, PayPal, alternate payment methods, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and all others, unless specifically restricted.

To create a surcharge for a campaign, navigate to CRM → Campaigns, edit a campaign, and select the Surcharge section.

Give the surcharge a Name. This name is how the surcharge is shown to customers.

Choose Country (or Zone), State (Always ALL when a Zone is selected)

Optionally enter a Pay Source. This is to apply the surcharge to credit card, ACH, prepaid, or COD orders only.

Choose to calculate as a Flat Price or Percent.

  • Flat Price is per transaction, not per order. If a Flat Price surcharge applies to upsales then it is calculated on each upsell. If an order has 3 products and each product is a separate transaction, then a Flat Price surcharge is added to each transaction.

Choose to calculate surcharge on shipping, tax, upsells, and rebills.

Region/Country is determined on an order by the shipping address. Non-shippable products will use the billing address if a shipping address is not provided.

API

Surcharge can be calculated and returned on the Order Sales Tax API endpoint
