Extra fees

An extra fee is a charge added to an order, such as a service charge. It is either a percentage of the order or a fixed amount.

A fee is added to an order automatically when it is set to auto apply for that order’s type. A fee that isn’t set to auto apply isn’t added on its own. Staff can still add it on the POS device: on the payment screen, they open the extra fees list and tick the fees to apply, or untick one to remove it.

In the sidebar, under Menu management, click Extra fee.

    Field Required What it does
    Name Yes Up to 200 characters. It must be different from every other extra fee name.
    Value Yes Choose % for a percentage, or your currency for a fixed amount, then enter the number. Switching between the two clears the number. The default is %.
    Auto apply Dine In No Tick to add the fee to dine-in orders automatically.
    Auto apply Take Out No Tick to add the fee to take-out orders automatically.
    Auto apply Tip No Tick to count the fee amount as a tip in tip totals. On its own it doesn’t add the fee to an order. Use it with Auto apply Dine In or Auto apply Take Out.
    Applied for all shops No Ticked by default, so the fee applies at every location, including ones you add later.
    Applied shops Yes, when Applied for all shops is unticked Untick Applied for all shops, then pick the locations in Choose applied shops. Pick at least one.

    All three auto apply boxes are unticked when you add a new fee.
