I am trying to build an integration using straight APIs that would allow a customer to make a payment via eCheck or Credit Card. The issue I am having is I want to allow the user to pay the transaction fee only using the APIs and not the hosted page. Can I do that using a flag or indicator in the API and how would I retrieve the amount? It seems like if I manually calculate the x.x% and add it to the total, then x.x% will come off of the new total and charge more. For example if I want to charge $100 and my fee is 3%, I could end up sending in $103 for the total transaction amount but then 3% would be charged to $103 and end up with a final amount deposited to the bank account of just under $100
Hi Michael,
Great question...but it has thrown some of us for a loop. I am working to track down the right person to answer your question and we will get back to you soon.
