I just asked this question over in the official Google checkout support forum, but if checkout support is anything like Android or Android Market support then I know I shouldn't expect a Google employee to read the question for at least 72 hours.
here's the link http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/checkout-merchants/thread?tid=380a78b84f03a6ec&hl=en and here is the text //---BEGIN QUESTION--- Question: Do android developers get charged the standard 2.00% + $0.20 processing fee per transaction? I was looking at my Google checkout account tonight and saw something new, on my payouts page it says, Processing Fees Base Fees (since 02/26/2009) 2.00% + $0.20 It did not say that yesterday. There is are no specific transactions listed when I click on the "Fees history" link. Every sale I have had has been charged the 30% transaction fee as set out in the android developer agreement. I sell 99 cent games, right now I only get 69 cents because of the "transaction" fee, is there now a processing fee? So I should expect to receive $0.47? $0.99 (Sale price) -$0.30 (30% transaction fee) -$0.22 ($0.20 + 2% processing fee) (???) $0.47 (What I end up with in my pocket) //---END QUESTION--- Has any other Android developer see this on their Google checkout account? Can anyone give me any more information about whether or not I will be charged for every sale? The idea of only making 47 cents per sale does not make me very happy.... but maybe I am misunderstanding this all, and I will be charged 2% plus 20 cents for every lump sum withdrawal I try to make from my Google checkout account?
