FAQ

Quick answers

Short answers for the questions that usually come up first.

Why have a merchant fee page separate from payment processing?

Because the search intent is different even though the underlying payout math is closely related.

Can I use this for service invoices too?

Yes. It works whenever the payment fee structure is processor-style rather than marketplace-style.
