Stripe fees for US accounts
Standard online card payments cost 2.9% plus 30¢. Manually entered cards cost 3.4% plus 30¢. International cards add 1.5%, and currency conversion adds 1%.
Many platforms that sell digital products, such as course and membership tools, process payments through Stripe, so this is often the fee behind a sale.
The formulas behind it
Every result cell is a plain spreadsheet formula, so you can check the math or rebuild it yourself.
| Cell | Result | Formula |
|---|---|---|
| B9 | Percentage fee | =CHOOSE(B3, 2.9%, 3.4%)+B4%+B5% |
| B10 | Fixed fee | =CHOOSE(B3, 0.3, 0.3) |
| B11 | Total fee | =B2*B9+B10 |
| B12 | Fee as % of payment | =B11/B2 |
| B13 | You receive | =B2-B11 |
| B14 | Charge this to receive your amount | =(B6+B10)/(1-B9) |
