Stripe payment processing fees are charged by Stripe directly each time a customer pays an invoice online.
These fees are separate from your Simple Invoice plan, and they are deducted automatically by Stripe before funds are paid out to your bank account. In other words, if an invoice is paid by card, the amount you receive will be the invoice total minus Stripe’s transaction fee.
As a guide for Australian businesses, Stripe fees are usually a percentage of the payment amount plus a fixed fee per transaction. Domestic card payments are typically the lowest-cost option, while international cards, AMEX, and currency conversion can cost more. Because Stripe pricing can vary by payment method and country, your exact fee per invoice may differ.

A simple way to estimate your cost is to apply Stripe’s percentage fee to the invoice amount, then add the fixed transaction fee. For the most accurate and up-to-date pricing, always check your Stripe Dashboard or Stripe’s official pricing page before publishing fee information to customers.
