Hi @riya_karar

Looks like your charging a fee to your own account:

> [@riya\_karar](#):

> `56e1d963-1700-4fe9-a705-dee0f598592c`

Below is an example of what the code should look like, with `charge-to` to the customer you’d like to charge the fee to. You can also find more info on facilitator fees [here](https://developers.dwolla.com/concepts/facilitator-fee#facilitator-fee)
