If the invoice is paid by card, you will be charged an additional fee of 3%. You cannot bill a physical person without this option.
Here is an example of an invoice a freelancer sends to their customer’s e-mail address. The invoice contains EasyStaff bank account details for SWIFT and SEPA transfers in euros, as well as SWIFT and ACH in dollars.
Our service fee contains several parts: 6% basic service fee + payout fee, depending on the withdrawal method, additional information can be found in a Payout details tab (for example, 1.5% + 0.5 EUR/USD will be charged for a card withdrawal)
Additional 3% is taken in case the invoice was paid by card.

Example 1 (a legal entity pays an invoice by bank transfer):

The customer paid an invoice for 1,000 EUR.

1 000 EUR - 6% (basic service fee, charged from the amount of the invoice at the moment of funds transfer to EasyStaff) = 940 EUR.

940 EUR - 1.5% - 0.5 EUR (additional fee for withdrawing funds to Card MC/VISA/MIR charged at the time of withdrawal of funds from the service) = 925.4 EUR. Current commissions for other methods can be seen under the Payout method selection line in your personal account.

In total, we will send you 924.5 EUR.

Example 2 (a customer pays an invoice by card):

The customer paid an invoice for 1,000 EUR.

1 000 EUR - 9% (6% basic service fee + 3% commission for paying an invoice by card, so 9% will be charged from the amount of the invoice at the moment of funds being transferred to the service) = 940 EUR.

910 EUR - 1.5% - 0.5 EUR (additional fee for withdrawing funds to Card MC/VISA/MIR charged at the time of withdrawal of funds from the service) = 895,85EUR. Current commissions for other methods can be seen under the Payout method selection line in your personal account.

In total, we will send you 895,85EUR.

Step 6. Receive a payment from your customer and closing documents in the service

After the customer receives and pays an invoice, it may take up to 5 business days (if the payment was a bank transfer) until the funds will come through to our EasyStaff bank account, and will be transferred to your personal account right after.
