Frequently asked questions
What is the Stripe fee for AU card payments?
Stripe charges 1.75% of the transaction amount plus a fixed A$0.3 per successful AU domestic card charge. This standard rate is what most online stores pay.
How much does Stripe charge per transaction in AU?
For AU-issued cards, Stripe takes 1.75% plus a fixed A$0.3. On a $100 sale, for example, you keep about $97.95 after the Stripe fee.
Does Stripe charge a monthly fee or setup fee in AU?
No. Stripe has no monthly fee, no setup fee, and no minimum — you only pay the per-transaction rate shown here. This makes it cost-effective for small and new businesses in AU.
What is Stripe's international (cross-border) card fee in AU?
Cards issued outside AU add a cross-border surcharge on top of the domestic rate shown here — for Stripe this is typically around 1.5%–2%. If you sell to international customers, factor this in.
Does Stripe refund its fee when I issue a refund in AU?
No. When you refund a payment, Stripe does not return the original processing fee — you lose both the refund and the original transaction fee. This is an important consideration for AU businesses with high return rates.
Are there additional Stripe fees for chargebacks in AU?
Yes. If a customer disputes a charge, Stripe charges a dispute fee (typically around $15) on top of the original processing fee, regardless of the outcome. This is separate from the standard rate shown here.
Why might my actual Stripe rate differ from this AU calculator?
Your effective rate can vary with a custom negotiated plan, currency conversion, international cards, or special transaction types. This calculator reflects Stripe's standard published AU rate.
Is this Stripe AU calculator run by Stripe?
No. This is an independent tool from Fee Calculator Hub. We reference Stripe's official AU pricing, linked below, so you can confirm the current rate yourself.
