Stripe card fees in Mexico (MXN)

A worked month

Assumptions: Stripe's standard pricing, an average order of MX$1,000, every payment successful, no refunds or disputes. Each line is rounded to the cent.

MX$200,000.00 in 200 orders, all domestic cards: 3.6% of MX$200,000.00 = MX$7,200.00, plus 200 × MX$3.00 = MX$600.00. Total MX$7,800.00, or 3.90% of sales.

MX$1,000,000.00 in 1,000 orders, all domestic cards: 3.6% of MX$1,000,000.00 = MX$36,000.00, plus 1,000 × MX$3.00 = MX$3,000.00. Total MX$39,000.00, or 3.90% of sales.

If a fifth of that MX$1,000,000 month came from international cards at 4.1% + MX$3.00, with no currency conversion, the bill would be MX$31,200.00 on the domestic MX$800,000 plus MX$8,800.00 on the international MX$200,000: MX$40,000.00 in total.

Month	Card mix	Stripe fees	Effective rate
MX$200,000 in 200 orders	All domestic cards	MX$7,800.00	3.90%
MX$200,000 in 200 orders	80% domestic, 20% international cards (no conversion)	MX$8,000.00	4.00%
MX$1,000,000 in 1,000 orders	All domestic cards	MX$39,000.00	3.90%
MX$1,000,000 in 1,000 orders	80% domestic, 20% international cards (no conversion)	MX$40,000.00	4.00%

What raises your fees

The headline rate covers the cheapest case. These push the real cost up:

Cards from abroad — international cards: 0.5% on top of the domestic rate (4.1% + MX$3.00 in total).
Currency conversion: +2% when the payment is in a currency other than the one you are paid out in.
Disputes: MX$150.00 for each dispute received.
Small orders: the fixed MX$3.00 weighs more on a small basket. On a MX$200 order, 3.6% + MX$3.00 is 5.10% of the sale.

For developers

The fee Stripe actually took on a payment is on that charge's balance transaction (fee and fee_details), in your settlement currency. Read it from there rather than recomputing it from this page, because card type and conversion change it per payment.
