# Add Fee Rules

You can use fee rules to further refine a fee schedule (in other words, your **When to trigger the fee?** selection for a fee). Fee rules require specific circumstantial criteria to be met before the fee is charged to the assigned entity.

The following sections describe the ways you can add fee rules.

## Add Rules to a New Fee

To add fee rules as you’re setting up a fee:

1. Click **Advanced Options** in the Add Fee dialog after your [initial fee setup](/v1/docs/set-up-a-fee#set-up-a-group-or-merchant-fee).
2. In the Conditional Rules section, select a fee rule option. See the [Fee Rule Options](/v1/docs/add-fee-rules#fee-rule-options) section for a list of available options with descriptions.
3. Set the amount or value in the new field that is displayed.
4. (Optional) Click the **+** icon next to your rule to add another rule.
5. Click **Add** to apply the fee rules to your new fee.

## Add Rules to an Existing Fee

To add fee rules to an existing fee:

1. Access the Fees Details page for the fee:
  1. Select **Groups** or **Merchants** under Management in the main side bar.
  2. Select the Group or merchant that you want to charge the fee to.
  3. Select **Fees** from the page side bar, and then select the****fee that you want to add fee rules to.
2. In the Fee Rules section, select a fee rule option. See the [Fee Rule Options](/v1/docs/add-fee-rules#fee-rule-options) section for a list of available options with descriptions.
3. Set the amount or value in the new field that is displayed.
4. (Optional) Click the **+** icon next to your rule to add another rule.
5. Click the **checkmark** button in the upper right to apply the fee rules to your existing fee.
