# Set Up Fees

You can apply Fees in multiple ways on the Payrix Pro platform:

- **Directly to entities:** Applied to individual merchants or partners.
- **Using Groups:** Applied to a Group of merchant entities.
- **Per transaction:** Applied to entities or Groups as each transaction is processed. A layer of fees triggered per transaction when an applicable fee type is submitted is known as a *fee listener*.

## Prerequisites

To ensure your experience is streamlined, make sure you’re familiar with the following concepts discussed in [Overview of Fees](/v1/docs/overview-of-fees):

- **Fee types:** The different categories of fees that you can create and charge to your merchants
- **Fee structure:** The basic layout for a fee configuration, including the fee schedule, fee modifiers, and fee rules
- **Fee collection process:** How fee payments are collected and where they can be found
