TAPEP LTD is not VAT-registered, so no VAT is added to TapEP’s fee.

Stripe’s fees

Stripe charges its own processing fees to your shop, separately from TapEP’s fee. TapEP does not set them. See Stripe’s UK pricing.

Refunds

When you refund a payment, TapEP gives back its fee: all of it for a full refund, and the matching share for a partial refund. Stripe’s own fees follow Stripe’s rules and may not be returned. See Refunds.

Disputes

If a customer disputes a payment with their bank, TapEP keeps its fee. Stripe’s dispute fees follow Stripe’s rules.

Payment limits

Each payment can be from £1.00 to £1,000, in pounds sterling. Your customer should start paying within about 30 minutes of the link being created.

Changes to the fee

We will give you at least 30 days’ notice by email before changing TapEP’s fee, unless the law or Stripe requires faster action. A change never applies to payments made before it takes effect.
