Example Calculation
For a campaign that raises $1,000 with 10 transactions, the fees would be calculated as follows:
- Platform Fee: $1,000 x 5% = $50
- Payment Processing Fee: $1,000 x 3.99% + (10 x $0.49) = $39.90 + $4.90 = $44.80
- Total Fees: $50 (Platform Fee) + $44.80 (Payment Processing Fee) = $94.80
-
