Applying credit card fees to Owner Accounts
Updated over 4 months ago

If a guest pays by credit card, you have the option to subtract the credit card charges from the rental income on the owner's statement.

The credit card fee is a percentage-based charge calculated from the guest payments applied to the reservation.
​
For example:

  • The reservation total is $500.00 and the credit card fee is 3%

  • Payment 1/2 is $250 by check

  • Payment 2/2 is $250 by credit card

  • CiiRUS will compute a 3% fee based on Payment 2, which is $250, resulting in a $7.50 charge. This charge will be presented as a distinct debit line item on the owner's account

Setting Up Credit Card Fees to Owner

Owners & Listings > Listings > Advanced Unit Setup > Filters > Enable 'Financial' > Apply

  1. Located on the right side of the grid, you will see a column labeled as "Credit Card Fee on Disbursement"

  2. Input a percent amount and click on the save icon to apply the changes

The credit card fee is a percentage-based charge that applies to all credit card types. Consequently, it is not possible to set individual charges for each credit card type.

Processing Credit Card Fees to Owner Accounts

After configuring the credit card fees, going forward, when processing rental income for owner accounts in the end-of-month process, the system will autonomously factor in and compute the credit card fees. These fees will be applied as a debit line item to the owner accounts.
