    Does paypal charge any fees to personal accounts???...

    I mean both paypal to paypal and credit/debit card to paypal...

    Cause my sister "MissMaria" got a payment via paypal by a credit card owner and didn't have to pay any fees... I have to and we are both personal accounts???

    Well at least that's what paypal says...

    Please Help

    Thanks

    There are no fees for personal accounts, but there are for business accounts. You have a limited # of transaction for personal accounts though..

    You sure... No for personal account there is no number for personal accounts just a $$$amount that if you reach automatically become a business account thats all isn't it???...

    So confusing...

    8everything are you sure there is no payment if your a personal account cause it says I am a personal account but when i receive money from a credit or debit card i have to pay 4.4% + 30c...

    Arghhhh

    Thanks

    PayPal charges about $2 for every $50 that you transfer between your account and someones else's, always. But not with credit card payments (I believe)

    You suck!

    paypal charge the fees to the receiver rather than the sender this is true both paypal and credit card payments. but i think if you become business account the charge is a bit lesser than the personal

    PayPal is good if you provide any service here ?
    because most of members here have PayPal account only.
    After PayPal i would recommend you MoneyBooker.
    I saw most of peoples using those two. :)
