    I have just earned

    $2
    $3

    For the $2 amount paypal have taken $.38 the $3 amount $.042.

    Is there anything I can do to reduce the amount paypal take? Im selling links on directories. Or is this just something that I have put up with?

    Thanks

    the percentage is what it is - no way to change that

    There is no possible solution to reduce the fees and hence just like everybody else, you will have to get used to it.... :(

    I used to have those fees when I had a premier account now I have a personal account and don't pay many fees at all.

    JamesB, there is no way that you can decrease the price. You may try other options like moneybookers or alertpay to decrease the fees of transaction but I don't think that will help you as most of the people prefer paypal.

    Accept non-cc payments in Personal account, and accept cc funded payments in Premier/Business account. No fee is charged for accepting non-cc funded payments in Personal account.
