Fees for gateways


wdele

Recommended Posts

Hi

 

So for PayPal the fee is automatically added to the 'Fees' column in the transactions. But for the others (iDEAL with Mollie and 2CheckOut) it doesn't automatically add the fees.

 

How can this be accomplished.

 

Thank you.

It's up to the payment gateway. From my experience a lot of payment gateways for WHMCS are not perfect. Most of time they don't give a damn about fees even if you really need them in order to pay your taxes. You should edit the code of the module so that it automatically gets or calculates transaction fees.

 

Alternatively, if you can't edit the source code of the module because it's obfuscated, you can achieve the same result by developing an action hook (InvoicePaid) that automatically calculates the fees only for payment gateways that don't support fees. It's pretty easy if you can use PHP and hooks. Maybe it's less than 1 hour if you are not skilled.

as far as I know, the gateways that get shipped with WHMCS are coded by WHMCS.

Maybe but I think that most of times they just include popular modules made by other companies/developers in the package of WHMCS. For example I use TCAdmin module (game/voice hosting Server Module) from 2008. This module has been made and coded by TCAdmin in fact I got used to download it from tcadmin.com. After a lot of years later I've seen it directly included in WHMCS. It's the same exact module with the same credits, description, version and comments in source code (in past some modules of WHMCS weren't obfuscated). Same thing happened with my Internetbs Registrar Module and TCAdmin 2 Advanced.

 

Thanks :) So true...

 

The gateways included in WHMCS, are they made by WHMCS or by the developers of the payment gateway? Then I know who to contact.

Try to open a ticket to find out who is the developer. If it is WHMCS expect long waiting times or that you have to use requests.whmcs.com. If it is a developer maybe he will ask you money. If it is a company (e.g. iDEAL with Mollie and 2CheckOut) maybe it's free but you still have to wait. Said that keep in mind that you still have a plan B: action hook. You can do it yourself or pay/call a developer.

 

Like I said it's a very easy job that allows you to save a lot of money with taxes :idea: 100.000 € @ 3.5% gateway fees = 3.500 € :oops:
