Questions
When is the fee taken?
Only when the client accepts the delivery (or PakWork releases the payment after a decision). The fee comes from the order amount; the client never pays extra.
Do I pay if the order is cancelled?
No. If an order is cancelled and refunded, no fee is charged to anyone.
Can the fee change?
If it changes, the new fee applies only to orders paid after the change. Orders already paid keep the fee shown when they were paid.
