CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

There is a cool feature on some other organization's websites that I would like to emulate. On them, once you choose a donation amount the credit card fees that will be charged to the organization are shown the donor is asked if they would like to cover these costs as well. For example, a donor types $50 in as the contribution amount. Below it is a question: "Organization will be charged a 2.5% credit card fee for this transaction. This comes to $1.25 for your contribution. Would you like to cover these costs?" Choosing yes then adds that to the original donation, making the total $51.25.

My question-- Has anyone managed this with CiviContribute? How would you suggest going about it? 

This is something we're interested in too. I tried with price sets on demo.civicrm.org, but wasn't able to figure out a way to dynamically calculate processing fees.

Intersting! Perhaps I will just add a price set that covers a "standard" processing fee. It's too bad that there isn't currently a way to dynamically calculate it though. Perhaps I'll play with programming...do you have any hints as to where one would start with a project like that?
