We’ve added a new configuration option that allows municipalities to pass processing fees directly to residents during checkout.


What’s New 

You can now enable a setting per pass that shifts both Stripe credit card processing fees and BarkPass transaction fees to the resident. When enabled:

  • Fees are automatically calculated and itemized at checkout.

  • Residents see the total amount, including fees, before completing payment.

  • Municipalities receive the full intended amount without absorbing processing costs.


Why It Matters

·       Retain 100% of your listed fees

·       Transparent billing for residents

  • Flexible Setup – Enable or disable per pass, anytime.

  • Support Innovation – BarkPass reinvests fees into platform improvements.


How to Enable 

>Navigate to Pass Settings

>Select Price Setting

>Scroll down to “Processing Fees” checkbox and select to pass fees to residents.

>BarkPass will handle the rest, effortlessly
