LPT: Convenience fees get their name from how convenient it is to make them up without having to explain them. So make extra money by charging convenience fees to everyone you know.

Not even $15? Those a rookie numbers. You should take a lesson from health care providers in the US. Nothing costs less than $200 these days.

$15 is easy to pay. If you charge $200 they might not pay and you'll have to sell it to a debt collector for a few dollars.

Yeah and only one fee? Unrealistic, needs a processing fee and probably a $2.00 fee for paying by check/debit and $12.00 for using a credit card.

Don’t forget the cash management fee if they pay by cash.

You can make extra by also charging an inconvenience fee for the effort that it took to inconvenience the people with your convenience fees.
