Learn about Markit's platform fees
Stripe Payment Processing Fees
All payments on Markit are processed through Stripe. Every transaction includes a standard Stripe payment processing fee that goes directly to Stripe to cover credit card processing:
- One-time payments (products and event tickets): 3.12% + $0.30 per transaction.
- Recurring membership payments: 3.62% + $0.30 per transaction — the standard 3.12% plus Stripe's 0.5% recurring surcharge.
This Stripe processing fee is the baseline on every transaction. On top of it, a Markit platform fee may apply depending on the transaction type and your subscription plan — higher-tier plans come with lower platform fees so you keep more of what you earn. The sections below break these down.
