PayPal fees settings

Actually, this is what I consider a calculation error on the part of the component - however, Tuan says that is the way it should be. Personally, I disagree - as you noticed, you are being shorted on the money received as the component is calculating the paypal fee based on the total, not the total that you want to receive.
See this thread - joomdonation.com/forum/membership-pro/47...ing-proper-fees.html
There is a code edit you'll have to do to get it to calculate correctly that Tuan gave me - this has to be done for each component of theirs that you have each time you update. (I have both events booking and membership pro) It's not difficult to do, if the code for eshop is different I am sure Giang can help.
I am glad you noticed this and I hope others notice and chime in so the devs will make this a permanent change.

Perfect, thanks for the info Brian. I will update the code. It would be nice if the developers made this a permanent change. The point of adding the PayPal fees is so the total cost of the fees gets passed to the customer, not just the majority of the fees. Bummer we have to make this code change every time the component is updated, but I'm glad to see there is a way to do it.

Thanks again!

Dear all,

A great news for you guys, I updated the source code to calculate the payment fee for PayPal in a correct formula as following:

1. With PayPal:
Payment Fee = [SubTotal + Payment Fee (Fixed amount)] / [1 - Payment Fee (Percentage) / 100] - SubTotal

2. With other payment plugins:
Payment Fee = Payment Fee (Fixed amount) + Payment Fee (Percentage) * SubTotal / 100

Let's update EShop to latest version 2.0.0 to have that feature.
Sincerely, Giang

Awesome! Now if we could get that as a permanent change on Membership Pro and Events Booking, that would be great! (Maybe you could talk to Tuan about that?)

OK Brian!

I will talk to Tuan about that. Hope that he will implement it soon.

Sincerely, Giang
