Hi all,

I am integrating paypal subscription api and I want to add paypal fees to the plans so that the customer would pay it. I have following questions:

  1. Is the paypal fee for subscription is 3.4%+20p flat?
  2. Is there any attribute in the plans api, where I could add the fee?
  3. What is the tax attribute for in plans api.

Really looking forward for help

Hi @sksatyendracse 

The processing fees will depend on your country, and if you are taking payments from users domestically or internationally, or if you are sending in multiple currencies. For details on the fees that you may be seeing for accepting payments, please see https://www.paypal.com/us/smarthelp/article/FAQ690.

 

You are not able to assess a surcharge for accepting PayPal payments on your site. You may charge a handling fee in connection with the sale of goods or services as long as the handling fee does not operate as a surcharge and is not higher than the handling fee you charge for non-PayPal transactions. You cannot add a surcharge to pass your processing fee to your buyers.

 

There is a Tax object where you can pass sales taxes in the request body found here: https://developer.paypal.com/docs/api/subscriptions/v1/#plans-create-request-body.

 

Thanks,
