Shopify Payments is one of the easiest ways to accept payments online. It’s a complete payments platform that lets you accept all major credit cards, Apple Pay, Shopify Pay, and more.

Shopify Payments has no setup fees and no monthly fees. You only pay when you make a sale. There are two types of fees:

  • Card rate: This is the fee that Shopify Payments charges for each transaction. The card rate is 2.9% + $0.30 for most cards, including Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover.
  • Shopify Payment Processing Fee: In addition to the card rate, Shopify Payments also charges a Shopify Payment Processing Fee. This fee is 1% for transactions in the United States, and 2% for transactions in other countries.

Example:

If you make a sale for $100 and your customer pays with a Visa card, then your total fees would be $3.19 ($2.90 + $0.29).
