# Convenience Fees for Payment Links

Convenience fees are buyer charges for providing an alternative payment channel (e.g., online or by phone). They are only supported for **fixed** payment links.

Convenience fees must be a **flat amount** (not a percentage) and cannot be applied when bank account (ACH) is the only permitted payment method. For more details on requirements, see [Convenience Fees](/guides/online-payments/payment-features/buyer-charges/card-brand-fees/convenience-fees).
