3. How Payments & Fees Work

When a client pays through a Zplit link, two types of fees apply:

3.1 Zplit fee (platform fee)

  • Zplit charges a 2% fee on the total client payment.

  • This is our platform fee for automating the split and triggering collaborator payouts.

  • The Zplit fee is only applied on successful payments.

3.2 Stripe fee (payment processing)

  • Stripe processes the payment and charges its own standard processing fee (for example, a percentage of the transaction plus a fixed amount, depending on country and payment method).

  • This fee is set and collected by Stripe, not by Zplit.

  • Any Stripe discounts or special pricing you have with Stripe still apply.

3.3 How the split is calculated

  1. The client completes payment on a Stripe-hosted checkout page.

  2. Stripe processes the payment and deducts its processing fee.

  3. Zplit applies the 2% Zplit fee to the total client payment.

  4. The remaining amount is divided between collaborators according to the percentages you configured.

  5. Each collaborator’s share is assigned to their Stripe-connected account.

You can decide whether to absorb these fees yourself or build them into your project price for the client.
