stripe fees higher than 2.9 percent
Your ‘2.9%’ is a fantasy until you sum Fee ÷ Amount on the CSV. Export 30 days, separate FX and disputes, then decide if pricing or add-ons are the leak.
The actual problem
Effective fee ratio climbs via currency conversion, disputes, or wrong pricing model.
Do this
- Export balance transactions CSV for 30 days.
- Sum Fee / Sum Amount — that is your true ratio.
- Check for Conversion fees and Radar for Fraud Teams add-ons.
- If international volume is high, enable relevant FX / local methods.
