    Our records indicate that the full intended amount, including any add-on fees, is reflected in our receivables. The entire merchant/credit card fee is accounted for as an expense.

    Please remember that your merchant will include the full amount received from your donor in the 1099-K form at the beginning of next year.

    I had the same request a few years back, I declined to go that route. I then thought that there was an unnecessary liability (for me), I haven’t changed my mind. We have used PayPal and other QR & bar code scanner forms, yes, those methods come with merchant fees. Hope this helps.
