Which report helps determine the average cost per transaction?

• A. Activity
• B. Balance
• C. Payment Fees
• D. Payouts

Answer: (C)

To determine the average cost per transaction, you need a report that lists the fees charged for each payment. The Payment Fees report provides the fee amounts tied to individual payments, so you can sum those fees for a chosen period and divide by the number of transactions in that period to get the average. Other reports don’t break down fees per transaction: Activity shows events, Balance shows the overall cash position, and Payouts show transfers to your bank—none of these give per-transaction fee details. For example, if total Stripe fees for a period are $320 across 100 transactions, the average cost per transaction is $3.20.
