Why the settlement difference is small with DORODORA PayPal fee

DORODORA PayPal fee is 5% of the checkout total. For example, if the base amount is 100, the checkout total is 105.26 and 5.26 of it (5%) is DORODORA PayPal fee. The fee is included in the checkout total and separated out at settlement, so the creator receives the base amount (100) minus only the PayPal processing fee. The two settlement amounts differ only by the PayPal fee on the extra 5.26, which is very small.
