What are the different places where you can set transaction fees?

There are 3 different places where you can set the transaction fee for your particular Crowdfunding purposes, and override other transaction fee settings.

Note that only the administrator can see the transaction fee settings unless you allow campaign creators to set the transaction fee.

Option 1. Payment settings: You can set the transaction fee for all campaigns that are running on the platform in the payment settings area.

You can find this section by logging in as a portal administrator, going to the administrator dashboard, click on the portal settings tab, then on the payment settings option. This will by default set the transaction fee for each campaign created, and charge a percentage of each donation to the campaigns on your platform.

Option 2. Campaign raise modes: You can override the Transaction fee that you set in the payment settings if you would like to charge a different transaction fee for the campaign raise modes.

You can find the transaction fee setting for the campaign raise modes by going to the administrator dashboard, click on the portal settings tab, then on the campaign settings option. Scroll down to the Campaign Raise Modes section, and add the transaction fee that you would like to set for the particular raise modes.

Option 3. Campaign percentage fee: You can set a percentage fee per campaign, and override all other transaction fee settings including the payment settings transaction fee, and the raise mode transaction fee settings.

To add the per campaign percentage fee setting, go to the admin dashboard, click on portal settings tab, then click on the campaigns settings option. Scroll down to the Campaign Percentage Fee section to enable the per campaign percentage fee.

When enabling the per campaign percentage fee, you can add the percentage fee in the Basics step of the campaign creation steps as shown below.

As you can see, there are several options for the percentage fee that you charge to your backers and campaign creators on your Crowdfunding platform.
