What are the costs involved?
The initial rollout phase has no setup or monthly costs involved.
Your organisation will only be liable for the transaction fees when a donation is made, as well as a payout fee, both of which are the charges that iloveza.com currently incurs from the payment gateways when a transaction like this is made.
Transaction Fee
The transaction fee is calculated at 5% (VAT Inclusive) + R2 per transaction.
For example R1000 donation x 5% = R50
R50 + R2 = R52 transaction fee on the R1000 donation.
Payout Fee
The payout fee will be R50 per payout and will only be charged when you choose to have a payout (i.e. once a month or whenever you choose to have a payout)
The minimum payout amount is set at R1000.
If your balance is in excess of R50 000 at any given time we will inform you, and we will issue an immediate payout.
