Stripe API - Value for fees deducted

[Jaimil Prajapati]

Hello,

Before in earlier version of API (Not sure which), Stripe would return Fees it deducted in the return JSON response. However, in "2013-08-13" version, I do not get "fees" property in the JSON object. Also, I am charging Customer and not a card.

Please help me out!

Thanks in advance! :)

Oh got it! I was reading API changelog, and Stripe has deprecated fee in favour of balance transaction.

If someone has similar issue, the return JSON response will now have "balance_transaction" property. You can use this to retrieve appropriate balance transaction, which now contains all fees details (https://stripe.com/docs/api/php#retrieve_balance_transaction)

Thanks anyways! :)

Hey Jaimil,

Glad to hear you figured it out!

As an FYI, you can also expand the balance_transaction property
automatically (https://stripe.com/docs/api#expand) instead of fetching
it in a separate API call.

Oh that's great! Never knew that... that will definitely increase performance a bit by reducing multiple calls. Thanks! :)

Hello.
I'm using this API call (latest version of the API): https://api.stripe.com/v1/transfers?count=10&include[]=total_count&expand[]=data.balance_transaction

It returns the transfers and the balance_transaction, but the fee value is always zero.

For example, I have a transfer that contains 2 charges. Gross is for example 127.90USD, Fees are -4.31USD, so the Total is 123.59USD.
I can see those data if I log on the Dashbord.
When I use the API I get:

data:
- id = tr_xxxxxxxx
- amount = 12359
- currency = usd
- balance_transaction:
--- amount = -12359
--- currencty = usd
--- fee = 0
--- fee_details = [0] (empty array)

And I have fee = 0 for all the transfers!

Why?
I can I get back the fees?

That would be because there is no fee to transfer funds to your own bank account.

The 2.9% + .30 fee is part of the balance_transaction for the charge, not for the transfer.
