Add commission for specific payment method
 

Hello guys,,

Is there any way to add or take away (percentage OR fixed amount) of the order total, when customer choose specific payment method at checkout page.

Example..

let say that the total is 30$ if the customer going to pay cash (Cash option is picked), but If he choose PayPal the total become 31.75$, while if choose Credit Card the total should be 30.95$.

Thanks

If you have Ultimate it's built in, otherwise you could use the Payment Method Fees module

Thanks,, pauldodman

I know that module, I was asking if there is an article that could help to self developing or add this feature without paying (Payment Method Fees module)

Thanks

It is however really bad practice to charge customers more just because they choose one payment method or another. The CC or PP processing fee is part of the cost of doing business. Don't push it down to your customers. Don't penalize the customers for something that you should incorporate in your products or services to begin with.

Paypal is even worse than credit card for Canadian sellers. I would restrict customers paypal payment <$500 order amount, and add 2% surcharge if >$500. But current Payment Method Fees does not offer such feature.

Anyway Payment Method Fees can offer surcharge for wire transfer bank fee and western union handling fee, it is still useful and legal.
