Payment Processing Fees
EstateSail offers integrated payment processing through Stripe. By connecting your Stripe account to EstateSail, you agree to the following:
- Stripe Processing Fees. All payments processed through Stripe are subject to Stripe's standard processing fees as outlined on Stripe's pricing page. These fees are charged by Stripe directly and are separate from any EstateSail fees.
- EstateSail Platform Fee. In addition to Stripe's processing fees, EstateSail charges a platform convenience fee of 1% of each transaction total processed through the Stripe integration. This fee is automatically deducted from the transaction payout before funds are deposited to your connected Stripe account.
- Fee Transparency. The 1% platform fee applies to all Stripe payment methods available in EstateSail, including Tap to Pay on iPhone, Bluetooth card readers, and any future Stripe-powered payment options. This fee does not apply to payments processed through other payment methods (e.g., Cash, Venmo, PayPal, Zelle, Square).
- Fee Modifications. EstateSail reserves the right to modify the platform fee percentage with 30 days' prior written notice to users. Continued use of the Stripe integration after such notice constitutes acceptance of the updated fee.
- No Hidden Fees. The 1% platform fee is the only fee charged by EstateSail on Stripe transactions. There are no setup fees, monthly fees, or cancellation fees associated with the Stripe integration.
