      Hi,

      For this you have to setup “Withdrawal Charges”.

      Please check this – https://wclovers.com/knowledgebase/wcfm-marketplace-withdrawal/

      Thank You

      Hi there,

      So far I’m very happy with your commission settings and the ability to recovery of the paypal fees which in Canada are 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction (including any tax and shipping if charged).
      So if a vendor has 50 transactions then those fees are x50 which the system is doing a great job of tracking and recovering when I do a payout withdrawal.

      BUT Is there a way to also recover the “withdrawal fee” which for PayPal in Canada is $0.32 for each withdrawal (We are using “payouts” to send commissions to vendors).

      For example :Vendor A wants to withdrawal money every couple of days vs Vendor B that withdrawals every 2 weeks

      so in a 2 week period:
      Vendor A’s withdrawal costs are 7 times $0.32 = $2.24
      Vendor B’s withdrawal costs are 1 times $0.32 = $0.32

      So far I have all the correct settings (see screenshot attached) so that I can cover all the 2.9% + 0.30 for each transaction for payments coming into our admin account (which is awesome) but can I also recover the $0.32 withdrawal fee we are charged for each payout?

      So then I don’t care how many times a vendor wants to withdrawal as the vendor is then responsible for paying the cost of $0.32 per withdrawal.

      Hi,

      OK, I understand.

      What if you set withdrawal charge – 2.9% + 0.62

      Is this will not resolve your purpose?

      Thank You

        Hi there WC Lovers – wondering if you have and feedback on this.

      No I don’t think that will work.
      Because the withdrawal charge is only one time charge (I will call that the out going paypal fees which is $0.32 no mater how much amount is withdrawn).
      The incoming fees from paypal are 2.9% plus $0.30 for each and every transaction. This fee is ALSO applied to any tax or shipping costs included in the transaction.

      Here is an example:
      Vendor A makes 6 transactions at $10.00 + 5.00 shipping each
      Paypal will charge 2.9% plus $0.30 for each and every transaction of $15.00 (10+5)
      Paypal fee for each $15 transaction is $0.44 + $0.30 = $0.73 and vendor keeps $14.27
      x 6 transactions
      PayPal fees = $6.18 (4.38+1.8) Vendor keeps = $85.62

      THEN vendor makes a withdrawal for the $85.62 PayPal will charge $0.32
      So Vendor “should be” be transferred $85.30 (less the $0.32).

      IF I set the “commission” setting at 2.9% + $0.30 will that be applied to the TAX and SHIPPING included in the transactions? (because that is how PayPal applies their fee).
      AND then I can set the withdrawal fee at $.32

      It if commission is ALSO applied to the taxes and shipping (The total financial transaction) then I think this will work.

      Please confirm.

      thanks

      Hi,

      OK, so you want to deduct customer payment PayPal transaction fee from vendor’s commission, right?

      It if commission is ALSO applied to the taxes and shipping (The total financial transaction) then I think this will work.

      Please add this to child theme’s functions.php –

      add_filter( 'wcfmmp_is_allow_commission_on_tax', '__return_true' );
      add_filter( 'wcfmmp_is_allow_commission_on_shipping', '__return_true' );

      Now, commission rule will be applied on Tax and Shipping cost as well.

      Thank You
