This is needed and seems like a basic function. Stripe charges me 2.9% of the transaction total and $0.30 per transaction. I have no way of telling if a client will pay via check or credit card so the invoice needs to read my price. Most of my clients pay via check, however, some choose to pay by card. My invoices range from $3000.00 - $5000.00 so 2.9% (87.00 to $150.00) is a substantial amount to lose off due transaction fees. I currently have a statement on the terms section asking that they add the processing fee to the invoice total but
1) It looks unprofessional as hell and
2) Some chose to ignore it thinking it's my cost of doing business with them.
