Join nowIs there a way to add our 4% convenience fee, automatically, when a customer pays through QBO with a credit card? Or, do I need to add it to the customer invoice? However, I will not know when a customer is uses QBO credit card payment unless they call and give me the credit card information via phone.
Glad to see you today, PAZ,
I can help you record your credit card convenience fee in QuickBooks Online.
At this time, we're unable to automatically charge convenience fees for credit card payments in QuickBooks Online. You'll need to do it manually by adding a new line item on your customer's invoice for the convenience fee. Let me guide you how to do that:
You can also record credit card charges directly from the Merchant Services Center. Please check out the Process a Credit Card payment section of this article to know more about the process: Process a Payment in Merchant Service Center
That should get you on the right track. Let me know how this goes, PAZ. I'm here to help you if you need further assistance with this concern. Have a good one!
Has QB online made it so we can automatically charge the credit card fee when a customer opts to pay online with a card?
We're glad you're here, HiddenGem.

Is there a way to automate credit card convenience fees in Desktop so we can allow customers to pay online instead of a manual modification of each invoice? If it's possible in QBO, it should be in Desktop.
Nice to have you joined this thread, Nelson.
I can see how having the option to automatically add credit card fees to your customer's invoice is beneficial in running your business.
The option to do is currently not available in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT). As a way around, you'll want to create a service item for the fee and include it in your customer invoice. I'll show you how.
After that, add the service item as another line item in your customer invoice.
Additionally, you can also use a third-party app that allows you automatically apply the credit card fees to your invoice. Simply go to the App Center or visit our Apps for QuickBooks Desktop page for reference.
Furthermore, I also recommend sending your feedback to our development team. This way, they can review your suggestion and might consider adding it in the future updates. Here's how.

QB Payments doesn't offer such feature yet. Consider to have a 3rd party merchant service to integrate with your QBD.
