Add a surcharge to payment portal

Overview

Your customers can pay their invoices and quotes with a credit or debit card through the Cin7 Omni payment portal. Those card details are sent to your connected payment gateway which processes the payment.

Cin7 Omni charges a transaction fee for every payment using the payment portal. Additional fees may be charged by your payment gateway provider, merchant payment service, bank, or other entities involved in processing the payment. You can offset these costs with a surcharge for any payments made in the payment portal.

You should test any changes you have made to the payment portal.
