- The strings you mentioned that cannot be translated with Loco Translate can be translated directly from the Checkout page. Navigate to your WordPress website, then go to SureCart > Checkout. By selecting the form from the list view, you’ll be able to translate success messages such as “thank you” and more. You can refer to this screenshot: https://app.screencast.com/kpEXmM9eJMUzD. For translating “Total” and “Amount due,” you can find the relevant settings here: https://app.screencast.com/Hvb3rxwtvArr5.
- SureCart itself does not charge any fees for processing e-commerce transactions on its paid plans. The fees you see are from the payment processors like PayPal, Stripe, or Mollie, which charge a standard fee for their services. These fees are necessary to cover operational costs such as payment processing, security, and fraud prevention.
Processor Fees: Each payment processor (e.g., PayPal, Stripe) charges its own fees. For instance, PayPal’s fees typically include a percentage of the transaction amount plus a fixed fee per transaction. These fees vary by processor and the type of transaction.
SureCart Free Plan: SureCart does charge a fee for transactions processed through its free plan. Specifically, a 2% fee is applied to transactions on the free plan in addition to the payment processor’s fees. This charge helps support the free version of SureCart.
Examples Provided: The SureCart documentation provides examples to illustrate potential fees, including a 20% VAT. This is purely an example to show how fees can be calculated and does not imply that a 20% tax will be applied to all transactions. If your products do not have VAT, this particular charge will not apply.
SureCart Paid Plans: On SureCart’s paid plans, the platform does not charge any additional transaction fees. You only incur the fees charged by your payment processor.
Payment Processor Fees: These fees can vary. For example, Stripe’s standard fee is 2.9% + $0.30 per successful transaction. There are additional fees for international cards and currency conversion.
Tax Example: The 20% VAT example in the SureCart documentation is just to show how tax might affect the total transaction amount. If your products do not include tax, this will not be applicable.
