The newest update of Nomad eCommerce includes a Fees Module that lets you apply payment and invoice fees directly in the platform, without custom coding or workarounds. For midsize manufacturers, distributors, and wholesalers, this puts you in control of fees online, letting you handle the costs that come with different orders, payments, or regions in a straightforward way.

What Does Our New Fees Module Do?

The Fees Module gives admins a straightforward, self-service way to stipulate when a fee should apply—something that used to require custom JavaScript or a support request. Now, you can log into the admin dashboard and manage it yourself.

Examples include:

• Add a percentage fee when customers pay with a credit card.
• Apply one flat fee for all online invoice payments—even when multiple invoices are paid at once.
• Add a handling fee to small orders that automatically drops off once the cart meets a minimum dollar amount or item count.
• Charge a surcharge for shipping to specific states or countries, or to cover cross-border costs.

The examples above are just common cases—the module isn’t locked to them. You can define your own rules in the admin panel.

Built for Control and Compliance

From the Nomad admin panel, you’ll now see a Payment & Invoice Fees page under Checkout. Here, you can create, edit, activate, or pause fees as your costs change.

Behind the scenes, the module is modeled after our Discounts system and uses a real-time fee engine. That means fees are instantly recalculated as customers update their cart, shipping method, address, or payment type. Each fee shows up as its own line item with a clear label—if the condition no longer applies, the fee disappears on the spot.

To support compliance, the module includes built-in acknowledgment steps: a splash page on first use and a save-confirmation modal, both logged for auditing.

How the Fees Module Helps Your Business Prosper

Margins are tight for mid-market companies, and unexpected costs add up fast. Until now, handling fees online usually meant custom code, manual workarounds, or just eating the cost, especially if costs fluctuate alot. With the new Fees Module, you can:

• Adjust quickly as costs change—no development project (or dollars) required.
• Keep customers informed with clear, real-time line items.
• Stay consistent with your sales team—customers see the same rules online as they hear offline.
• Avoid after-the-fact adjustments—fees apply automatically so you don’t have to step in and frustrate the customer.
