To the **Label** field, you add the name of the tax or fee that will be displayed on the checkout page/pop-up.

In **Type** dropdown you need to select a type of calculation to apply. There are two types of calculations possible: 

**+**    to add a certain flat rate (a fixed amount) to the order total price;
**% **  to add a certain percent of order subtotal (all items' cost).

**Value** defines the number of percents or the flat rate value that will be added to the order total price.
