A 3.5% fee would cover Stripe fees. Many organizations, including government organizations (even electric companies) charge online service fees for using a credit card.

If a person checked, I will pay online (with a small explanation that a 3.5% payment processing fee will be added), then this amount could be charged to the invoice.
Please design this feature.
