Worked Example for Fees payable by Individuals
For example: If a user pays-in $500 via PayID from their banking application into Kuber, an administrative fee of $0.70 will apply and the remainder of $499.30 will be credited into the user’s Kuber wallet as the balance.
If a user wishes to withdraw $100, then an administrative fee of 1.5% will apply and the user will receive $98.5 in their bank account. However, if the user wishes to withdraw $500, an administrative fee of $4 will apply as the 1.5% of the transaction amount becomes more than $4 which is the maximum administrative fee Kuber charges on withdrawals and the user will receive $496 in their bank account.
If a user decides to subscribe to the Analytics feature, they are shown a prompt including the amount which is $3/ week. They are also shown the dates to and from which their subscription will be active and when it will expire. They swipe and give their consent to this and Kuber deducts the $3 from their wallet balance.
