Frequently asked questions

How is late fee interest calculated?

Multiply the overdue amount by the annual rate, then by days overdue divided by 365. For example, $1,000 at 8% for 30 days accrues $6.58 in interest.

What late fee rate should I charge?

It depends on your contract and your country. In the UK, statutory interest for business debts is the Bank of England base rate plus 8% per year. Elsewhere, use the rate agreed in your contract — keep it reasonable.
