Frequently asked questions

Why does PayPal charge different fees?

Fees depend on transaction type (goods vs friends), whether it is domestic or international, and the receiving country. Micropayments have a special rate that is better for small amounts.

How do I make sure I receive an exact amount?

Use the "Target net" mode. Enter the amount you want to receive after fees, and we tell you exactly what to charge the client so the fee is covered.

Are these fees exact?

These are typical rates. PayPal changes fees periodically and business or high-volume accounts may have different rates. Always check your actual account for the definitive number.

Does PayPal charge for Friends & Family?

No fee when funded from PayPal balance or bank account (domestic). International F&F transfers have a small fee. Never use F&F for actual business — it removes buyer/seller protection.
