Any way to view breakdown of fees?

I'm using the "Collected By Itchio" payment method. In my account, I can see the Payments that have been made by customers, and my Account Balance. I don't see any way to view a breakdown of the fees that have been deducted from my balance, although I noticed that connecting a PayPal account immediately reduced the funds in my account even though I haven't initiated a payout. 

Other online markets that I use clearly show a breakdown of any and all fees that have been deducted. Is there a way to view a breakdown of the fees that Itchio has taken from our Account Balance?

Hi. The balance you see is only an estimate, when you request payment, a document is generated with all the details, including transaction fee and tax withholding, as well as refunds or additional charges.

In my personal experience, that balance tends to be smaller than the actual final value, but as I say, you will be able to see the details when the payment is generated.

If it serves as a guide, the fee for each transaction is usually between 0.5 and 1 dollar (NOTE: It is only a reference value, since it depends on the payment method used and the value of the game), you must deduct the Itch percentage (10 % by default) and tax withholding for transactions made from the USA. If it is the first time you request a payment, you have an additional charge of 3 dollars for the validation of your tax interview.
