Surcharge for foreign check/money orders

Is there a module or hack to add a surcharge for foreign checks?

I recently activated the check/money order option. My store is UK based and recieved a payment from the US for $56 including shipping. When I went to cash the check this morning I was surprised to learn that it will cost $20 to cash, therefore making a loss on this order.

Is there anyway I can add a surcharge for foreign checks but leave it free for local checks?

Thanks in advance.

Re: Surcharge for foreign check/money orders

Better idea might be to not accept foreign checks or money orders by using the Zone Exclusion features.

Please do not PM for support issues: a private solution doesn't benefit the community.

Be careful with unsolicited advice via email or PM - Make sure the person you are talking to is a reliable source.

Thanks Kim, I'll look in to that.

It would be great if there was an option to add a surcharge at the end for other countries, payment types etc.

Cheers.

Re: Surcharge for foreign check/money orders

You can do surcharge for different shipping zones. I never had the need to surcharge for payment from foreign though. Do NOT accept check/money order from a foreign country at all. It doesn't worth the headache come along with it.

I no longer provide installation support on forum for all my modules. However, if there are real bugs with the modules please feel free to contact me
