What are the transaction fees for Stripe?
When processing online payments through Stripe and FreshBooks Payments powered by Stripe (including BACS and SEPA Direct Debit), there is a transaction fee included. Depending on where you're located and whether the transaction is domestic (same country) or international (different country), different rates apply. The transaction fee is taken out of each payment that is processed before being deposited into your account.
