20% fee will apply to your first $500.
Anything above $500 will be applied with 10% fee.
Anything above $10,000 will be applied with 5% fee.
So, let's say you earn $700 working for one client, total fee will be:
$500 x 20% = $100
$200x 10% = $20
In the end, you take: $580 (minus transfer charge if any)
*Please be noted that $500 threhold is per client, meaning if you earn another $500 from a different client, the fee for that $500 is still 20%.
Hope this help.
