Understanding Auction Fees: A Guide for Donors

This article will provide more information on the transaction fees that may be charged on auction items.

For some auctions, the winner of the item is responsible for covering the transaction fees associated with that purchase. If you need to cover the fees, you will see a disclaimer about the fees on the bidding page.

After the auction ends, you will see an automatic charge on your linked credit card for the items you won. This charge will include the winning price of the item and the online transaction fees.

Fees start at 2.45% + 0.30 but depend on the rate the organization you are supporting has, as well as the type of payment method you use. 

You can see the full amount you were charged in fees on your receipt.

 

If you have any questions regarding your fees, please reach out the organization that you are supporting.
