Shipping charges billed by Shopify appear slightly higher than the amounts shown at purchase time, with consistent increases of about $0.50–$1.00 per order.
Examples provided:
Concern: Across hundreds of transactions, these small differences accumulate to a significant cost.
Key question: Is there an unlisted surcharge or fee being added to shipping charges that isn’t clearly identified?
Status: No explanation or confirmation is provided in the thread; the issue remains open and unresolved.
Does anyone know why every billing transaction for shopify billing for shipping is .50 -1.00 more that what each sale transaction actually says I paid for shipping?
Example:
Sale #1
Shipping the transaction says I purchased: 37.93 Actual billed: 38.49
Sale [email removed]#2
Shipping the transaction says I purchased: 43.94 Actual billed: 44.59
When you go through hundreds of transactions, this really adds up.
Is shopify charging some sort of surcharge but not identifying it?
