Is there a way of Houfy adding the merchant fee (eg. 3%) for taking Square payments?Most of my guests pay by direct bank transfer as this is free but I do give them the option of paying by credit card (via Square) if they pay an extra 3%. I have added this as an extra fee in the Pricing page but this doesn’t seem to transfer to the payment request sent to guest. What am I doing wrong?
