This would probably need to be a split transaction (which you'll need to
split after you Process Payment).  So I would process payment for the
full amount ($50) into your account.  Then go into your account, select
that transaction, click "split", then change the deposit split into that
account from $50 to $48.52 and, after you tab out of that line it will
create a new split for $1.48 which you can assign to your Expenses:Bank
Fees account.

Good Luck,
