Quick answer

Payment gateways charge a percentage of each payment, sometimes plus a fixed fee, and 18% GST on that fee. At 2%, a ₹10,000 payment costs ₹200 plus ₹36 GST, so ₹9,764 reaches your bank and the real deduction is 2.36%. On ₹2 lakh a month, that is ₹4,720 in fees.

How to use this calculator

  1. Enter the payment amount.
  2. Copy your plan's fee % and any fixed fee from the gateway dashboard.
  3. Add monthly volume to see your monthly cost.

Formula

Fee = amount × fee % + fixed fee

GST = fee × 18%; amount received = amount − fee − GST

Gateway pricing differs by plan and payment method. Check your current rate card.
