Service Fees

How to set up and manage service fees added to your store's orders.

What are Service Fees?

Service fees are additional charges added to orders — for example, a restaurant's 10% table-service charge. Fees appear as a separate line item in the order summary, keeping pricing transparent for the customer.

How to Configure Service Fees

  1. Go to Settings > Stores, open your store, and select the Service Fees tab.
  2. Click Add Fee and configure it:
SettingDescription
Fee TypeFixed (a set amount) or Percentage (a share of the subtotal, up to 100%)
Fee ValueThe amount or the percentage
  1. Click Save.

A store can have multiple service fees — each appears in the fees table where you can edit or delete it.

How Service Fees Appear on Orders

When an order is created for a store with service fees:

  • The fee is added to the order automatically
  • It appears as Service Fee in the order summary
  • Percentage fees are calculated from the subtotal

Example:

ItemAmount
Subtotal200 EGP
Service Fee (10%)20 EGP
Tax (14%)30.80 EGP
Total250.80 EGP

See Pricing & Tax Calculations for a full breakdown of how totals are computed.

Overriding Service Fees on an Order

When making a sale, you can manually adjust the fee for that order:

  1. In the cart summary, open the Fees option.
  2. Enter the new amount.
  3. The order total updates automatically.

Note

Overriding the fee only affects the current order. The default fee configuration stays unchanged for future orders.
