Fee Collection for Coinbase Managed Commerce
Coinbase Managed Commerce automatically deducts 1% of all incoming payments from merchants' customers before depositing the remaining amount into the merchants account.
How Automated fee collection works:
When a payer sends a payment, their crypto funds are transferred to Coinbase Commerce where settlement instructions are carried out.
This commerce account captures a 1% fee and the remaining 99% of funds, in crypto or fiat (cash), are then sent to the merchant's exchange account.
If the merchant has chosen auto-conversions, the remaining 99% of crypto funds will first be converted into fiat before being sent to their exchange account.
Automated fee collection currently works for all supported cryptocurrencies: BTC, ETH, USDC.
