How much will it cost to send an Invoice?
You don’t pay anything for sending your invoices (as many times as you like). You only pay a small transaction fee per sale, when customers pay using the payment link attached to the invoice.
For online payments, our transaction fees range from 2.55% to 2.95% for Visa/Mastercard payments, and for international cards it ranges between 3% and 3.4% - depending on your turnover and fees package. Online payments incur a minimum fee of R2.26 per transaction. Instant EFT has a fixed 2% (ex VAT) fee - with same day settlement.
The more you transact, the less you pay. Get more details about how Yoco fees work here.
