Ability to link fees to both the payment channel (card networks, banks , agents etc would have different associated fees) and the deposit event is missing. However, since most new wallets tend to absorb loading charges during the market formation phase, this might not be an immediate concern.

The ability to have multiple slabs based on transaction amounts, link fees to a particular merchant etc are absent. Multiple workarounds are available:

a) Transfer fees being linked to the deposit event at the merchant account. Each merchant account can then have separate deposit fees linked to them.

b) Fees being calculated outside of the system and applied to each merchant wallet at the end of a month
