Third-party payment processing fee

If you process card payments through a third-party processor connected directly to your account, rather than through Kajabi Payments, a transaction fee applies in addition to that processor's own fees. The fee is based on your Kajabi plan. See the pricing page for current rates. PayPal is not subject to this fee.

This fee applies only in countries where Kajabi Payments is available. If Kajabi Payments isn't offered in your country, no third-party transaction fee is charged.

Processing fee invoices

Each month, Kajabi generates a processing fee invoice for every site and currency where you used Kajabi Payments. Each invoice is a tax invoice that records the fees Kajabi charged you for the month, so you can share it with your accountant or use it for expense reporting. Invoices are available from January 2024 onward.

What a processing fee invoice includes

  • Account details: your account ID, site ID, invoice number, invoice date, and service month

  • Bill to: your legal business name and address on file with Kajabi Payments

  • VAT number: your customer VAT number, if one is on file with your Kajabi account

  • Fee line items: Kajabi Payments Processing Fees, plus Dispute Fees, Adjustments, and Fee Refunds in months where they apply

  • Totals: Kajabi Payments fees, total VAT, and the invoice total

  • Payment status: a statement that the total was debited from your Kajabi Payments balance, with an amount due of zero

  • VAT statements: a statement that no VAT or other taxes are charged, and that reverse charge VAT may be applicable

Each invoice covers one currency. For example, if you processed in both EUR and USD in May, you will see two invoices for that month.

When invoices are available

Kajabi starts generating invoices at midnight Pacific time on the 1st of each month, for the month before. For example, your May invoice is generated starting June 1st.

If you don't see an invoice for a month, it may be because:

  • The month hasn't ended yet

  • You had no Kajabi Payments activity in that currency during the month

FAQs

I process in multiple currencies. Will I get one invoice or multiple?

You will receive a separate invoice for each currency. Each one is listed under its month with a currency label, and they can't be combined into a single document.

I'm based in the EU. Can I use this invoice for tax reporting?

Each invoice is a tax invoice that shows the fees Kajabi charged you, along with the VAT statements described above. Whether you can declare processing fees as a business expense depends on your local tax rules, and it's your responsibility to determine the correct local treatment, including any reverse charge considerations. Check with a qualified tax professional.

Why does my invoice mention VAT if I'm not being charged VAT?

The same VAT statements appear on every invoice, regardless of your location. Kajabi is a non-EU entity and isn't VAT registered in the EU, so it doesn't charge VAT on its processing fees. The invoice also notes that reverse charge VAT may be applicable.

I had payouts in a month but don't see an invoice. What should I do?

Invoices are created for each site and currency, so check that you're on the right site and look for the invoice under a different currency label. If you believe an invoice is missing in error, contact [email protected].
