Hi Kristen,

This response is for Canada. I am not sure how other countries work for this. The cedit card company does charge a fee on the total amount. Unfortunately you cannot collect the entire fee from the client. When using quickbooks we are charged 2.9% and the Canadian government limits the amount we are allowed to charge our customers to 2.4% therefore we pay 0.5%. You can however charge a service or convenience fee which can make up the difference and then some depending how much you charge for the convenience fee
