Work out your Stripe fees
Payment processors like Stripe take a percentage plus a fixed fee per transaction, so you receive less than the charge. This calculator estimates the Stripe fee and net received, so you know what actually reaches your account.
Why the fixed fee matters on small charges
A processor fee is typically a percentage of the transaction plus a small fixed amount, and while the percentage dominates on large charges, the fixed fee weighs heavily on small ones, taking a much larger proportion of a small payment. This is why processing many tiny transactions is disproportionately expensive. Working out the fee and net for a given charge shows what you truly receive, which matters for pricing, especially if you want to net a specific amount, since you must gross up to cover the fee.
A planning estimate
This is an estimate for planning from the figures you enter, not financial or business advice. Real outcomes depend on factors beyond any single calculation, so treat the result as a guide. The calculation runs entirely in your browser, so your figures are never uploaded and stay on your own machine, which matters for business numbers you would not want to share.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Stripe charge fees?
Typically a percentage of the transaction plus a small fixed amount per charge. The net you receive is the charge minus that fee.
Why does the fixed fee matter more on small charges?
Because it is a much larger proportion of a small payment, making many tiny transactions disproportionately expensive to process.
How do I net a specific amount?
You must gross up the charge to cover the fee, so the amount after the fee equals your target. The calculator helps you see the fee to do this.
Does the fee come out of my revenue?
Yes. The processor deducts it, so the net reaching your account is below the amount charged, which pricing should account for.
Is my data uploaded?
No. The calculation runs entirely in your browser.
