Sure you can, just raise your prices up some or perhaps add it in the handling fee?

Is that a possibility?

Hi Mark,

Yes, I know I could raise the prices, but I was wondering about the following possibility for example:

- I have a product which costs 100.00
- 5% of 100.00 is 5.00
- so I put the price at 100.00 and add a handling fee of 5.00
- the 100 goes to me and the 5.00 goes to 2CO

But the way I think it works (I haven't used my 2CO account yet) is that the total would be 105.00 and 2CO gets 5% of that which would be 5.25.

I know this only 0.25 but if the product cost 900 then the margin would be a lot greater...
Does this make any sense at all?

I mean is there a way of automatically calculating the 2CO fee of a given product without having to think back to math class :)

Can you not force an item into the basket that costs 5% of the total ??

I know -- my prices are usually so low that I have to be careful of not making a loss : )
That's why I asked about the 2CO fee...

Anyway, thanks for your comments...
