The fees created with Magical Fees are set up as Shopify products. Because of this, they can sometimes appear in your online store’s product listings. While fee products are hidden from search results, they may still show up on product listing pages.
To keep fee products out of your automated collections, edit the conditions to exclude products with the product type "Fee Placeholder".
How to edit a collection that hides fee products:
- From your Shopify admin, go to Products > Collections.
- Click the collection you want to edit.
- Under Conditions, set the following:
- In the first dropdown, select Product type.
- In the second dropdown, select is not equal to.
- In the third field, type Fee Placeholder and select it.
- Click Save.
This method keeps your order fee products out of view while still allowing them to function properly at checkout.
Always label deposits separately for compliance
Display bottle deposit fees as a clearly labeled, separate line item at checkout and on receipts. This meets regulatory transparency requirements, builds customer trust by showing exactly what they're paying, and makes it significantly easier to track deposits for reporting and audits. Use a clear label like "Bottle deposit" or "Container deposit (CRV)" so customers immediately understand the charge.
“Magical Fees is the only fee app that allows you to apply a fee based on a specific or individual state/province situation. All the other apps we tested only allow 'Location' (the entire country) which is a major limitation. The solution Magical Fees applies during the Cart to Checkout process is very smart and not a hassle. Very easy app to setup and the support was great.”
