Payment processing fees are only added for high-overhead payment methods in some international territories. See https://www.epicgames.com/store/en-US/about … for the list. Steam does the same for some high-cost payment methods.

VAT is European sales tax, not a payment processing fee. All stores, including Steam, collect this tax. This transaction doesn’t show any payment processing fee. As for the Euro price,
@galyonkin will investigate.4 replies 0 retweets 2 likes
I’m sorry all, I misread the screenshot above. This transaction reflects a purchase of Metro Gold Edition, with VAT included in the price, and a payment processing fee. We can’t see the payment method here but assume it’s PaySafe.
