Do I get charged any fees for using PayPal?

I have 2 questions about HikaShop...

1. When using PayPal or any of the payment gateways, will I be charged any fees? I know when you sell on eBay or some other websites, you are charged a 2.9% fee.

2. This question is more for the shipping section but I'd rather do it in 1 topic to save time. Is there a way to set a certain shipping method for each product or does it have to go by dimensions? I don't have the dimensions of certain products at the moment so I'm unsure of what I should set the shipping as.

I'm not sure of the version right now as my website is having issues right now but it's the latest version of HikaShop Starter.

Hi,

1. It depends on the payment gateway and the contract you have with them.

2. Using the feature/plugin "shipping price per product" you can.

Regards,

I'm using PayPal at the moment. I signed up for a new PayPal account since it's been so long since I used my old one and don't remember the info. When installing HikaShop, I put that PayPal email address in. So by doing this, there shouldn't be any fees?

Thank you for your response.

Hi,

HikaShop doesn't charge any fees, but PayPal does:

Ok, I checked and I do have the plugin "HikaShop Shipping manual - Prices per product plugin" and it is enabled. How do I set a shipping price per product now? When adding/editing a product, all I see is setting the product price.

You first need to create your shipping method(s) via the menu System>Shipping methods. Once you have at least one shipping method configured with the "shipping per product" option turned on, you'll see the "shipping prices" zone on each product edition page to be able to configure the shipping price for each product.

I have my shipping methods already enabled and I have the shipping manual plugin enabled too. When adding new product, I don't see anything about the shipping price. I've added screenshots.

Hello,
Did you enabled the "Use price per product" option through your shipping methods ? Also, Note that if you want to use the "Manual shipping method" you'll also have to create it by using the "New" button through "Hikashop->System->Shipping methods".

Wow, I cannot believe I didn't check the box in the shipping methods. Thank you so much for the help. I got it to work.
