What A$1,500 really costs
Charge A$1,500 through Stripe in Australia and A$1,474.20 reaches your account. The fee is A$25.80: A$25.50 from the 1.7% rate and A$0.30 from the fixed charge.
For scale, the same rate card takes 4.7% of a A$10 payment and 1.71% of a A$5,000 one, against 1.72% here. It never falls below the 1.7% headline, only closer to it, because the flat A$0.30 is charged once per payment rather than in proportion to it. Billing a client once for A$1,500 therefore costs less than billing five times for a fifth of it.
Working backwards: to actually receive A$1,500, you would need to charge A$1,526.25. That is the number to use when you are quoting a client a net figure or splitting a bill.
Those figures assume a domestic card with no currency conversion. Stripe charges currency conversion (+2%) on top of the same base. With it applied, the fee on A$1,500 rises from A$25.80 to A$55.80 and you keep A$1,444.20 instead of A$1,474.20 — 3.72% of the sale against a headline 1.7%.
