Hi,

In v1.4 under epayment_method system settings is a setting charge_paypal_fee.

The description is "Actived, if you want assum the fee of paypal and don't apply it on the customer (values : yes - no)"

I am a little confused on the yes/no setting. Does "no" mean the fee will be paid by the buyer. Example: buyer buys $1.00 for call time. PayPal charges them $1.00 + $0.33 processing fee. and A2billing credits their account $1.00.

Kind Regards,

Les

Hi,

Has anyone used the charge_paypal_fee setting yet?

good question ... the description is pretty confusing.
anybody willing to clarify?
I assume no would mean the customer has to pay the fee. but not sure

I used it the other day when I was trying to get PayPal up and running...

What happens is that the person pays, say, 1000 yen, but their account only gets credited for 924 yen. I have no idea how the system calculated that the fee was 76 yen though.

This setting is the opposite of the way it sounds, think of it as appling to your own system.
If you say YES you get charged not the customer.
If you say no then the customer has to pay.

It is actually documented right in the a2billing.conf file...
