Otute keeps a percentage of each payment and pays the card network's fee out of it. Buyers pay only the price shown.
Otute keeps a percentage of each payment — the seller's plan rate. The rest is the seller's. Buyers pay the price shown and nothing more; the fee comes out of the seller's share.
The card network charges a fee on every card payment. Otute pays it out of its own fee, so it does not reduce what the seller receives. The exception is a refund: the card network does not return its fee when a payment is refunded, and that fee is then the seller's. See Refunds.
A tutoring contract keeps the fee it was agreed at for its whole life. Other payments use the plan in force when the buyer pays. Sellers are told before their plan changes.
