Now, this will required maybe some adjustments like hide price aside payment method in checkout (via Css), Add a **block Text** in your Checkout Workflow in order to inform customers of this additional cost, and create an language override to modify the "***payment fee***" translation (see this **[ documentation](https://www.hikashop.com/download/languages.html#modify)**). Hope this will help you to achieved your need. Regards Last edit: 4 years 1 month ago by [Philip](/forum/user/34318-philip "View Philip's Profile").

In Hikashop -> System -> Taxes : 1) Create a 5% rate ('Manage rates' button at top) 2) Create a tax ('New' button at top) with : - choose the tax category used for your products (if you have more than one, you must repeat the operation with the other categories) - select the rate previously created - set cumulative tax to 'Yes' Idea to be confirmed by someone from Hikashop Last edit: 4 years 1 month ago by [FDBI](/forum/user/63027-fdbi "View FDBI's Profile").

However, this means that users wouldn't be able to enter coupons on your checkout, unless you add the multicoupon plugin we have on our marketplace. Or, you could also do it with a tax rule as Yaya27 said: You would have to activate the "cumulative tax" setting of your tax rule(s) and create a tax rule for the 5% surcharge and configure it to apply to the tax category of the products but not the tax category of the shipping methods. That way, you would get two tax rows on the checkout, one for VAT, one for that 5% surcharge. Last edit: 4 years 1 month ago by [nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile").
