What are Creator Commission Transaction Fees?

Levanta enables Sellers to make affiliate payments at scale with our robust payment infrastructure powered by Stripe. When Sellers make payments to Creator, they may incur a transaction fee depending on the payment method used. This fee adjustment will only apply to commission payments to your Creators, and there will be no transaction fee applied to credit card payments for Levanta's SaaS and platform fees.

How much are these transaction fees?

These fees are subject to change by Stripe, but at the time of writing, Stripe charges:

These transaction fees will be applied to your Creator Commission invoices automatically.

Levanta covers the transaction cost of Bank Transfers and ACH Direct Debits, and thus these payment methods will not incur an additional fee.

How will the transaction fees be charged?

Creator Commission transaction fees will be automatically charged to the credit card used to make the Creator Commission payment, shortly after the initial payment is made. You will recieve a receipt from Stripe with the details of the payment. Transaction fee payments are always automatically charged — even if you have auto-bill disabled in the Payments menu of the Levanta platform.
