Introduction

Using Nomupay's gateway will trigger a fee based on your usage. When you are setup for Nomupay acquiring then the applicable gateway fee is reported via the daily funding report, which you receive either via email or can download from Nomupay's Portal. 

The gateway fee will be shown as one or more line items per day, and the line item(s) will indicate the usage that triggered the fee. You can reconcile the line item(s) in the funding report with your gateway usage by consulting the Transactions page in the Nomupay Portal.

Gateway fee line items

Your gateway usage is classified as events. The list of possible billable events are as follows:

In your daily funding report you will see one or more line items per day. The line item(s) linked to gateway fees can be identified by the following fields:

• Transaction Type (transaction_type) = NT_Fee
• Gateway Fee Amount (gateway_fee_amount) = The gateway fee amount calculated based on the count of events
• Remarks (remarks) = The count of the events e.g. gatewayfee for 100 three_d 100 db 2 rf

Reconcile gateway fees with gateway usage

To reconcile the count of gateway fee events in the funding report with your gateway usage we advise to take the following steps:

1. Sum the counts of line item(s) per event type for a day or a period, and
2. Compare the sum per event type with the transactions in the Portal for the same day or period.

It should be noted that a single transaction can have multiple events, which means the reconciliation must be done per event type.

As an example:

(1) Extract data from daily funding report:

Transaction Date (trxn_date) = 01/09/25

(2) Sum the line items per event type for the given day:

(3) View the sums in the form of Total Transactions in Nomupay's Portal:

Go to the Transactions page and filter on 01/09/25

Filter on the event types

Event type short name	Description		Click on the dropdown and choose
three_d	3D Secure	Choose 3DS	Yes
cp	Capture	Payment Type	CP (Capture)
db	Debit	Payment Type	DB (Debit)

View the sum of Total Transactions returned by the Portal based on the applied filter

Note there can be smaller discrepancies due to time zone differences between Nomupay Gateway and the user logging into the Portal.

Future enhancements

Note that we plan to improve the customer experience when it comes to gateway event billing in the upcoming period. The planned changes will include:

• A change of the Transaction Type (transaction_type) from NT_Fee to Gateway_Events,

• Ensure that only one line item will be reported per day, and

• Ease the reconciliation of gateway fees with gateway usage.

We we keep this article up to date to reflect the roll-out of the upcoming enhancements.
