Please Kindly Help! I was charged $6.2 from the $100 payment!

Total Amount:
$100.00 USD
Fee Amount:
-$6.20 USD
Net Amount:
$93.80 USD

Is that normal??

I am a new in Paypal.

 

If your worried about the fee search the online "help center", failing that you could always drop them a message explaining the charge. Goog Luck.

 

It looks fair. Check out https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_display-fees-outside&countries=ROW for the fees.

This is an assumption that you are not from the US and your customer is from another country. The fees schedule would be 3.4% + US$0.30 (Receive Payment) and 2.5% Foreign Exchange fees.

$3.40 (3.4%) + $0.30 + $2.50 (2.5%) = $6.20 .

Overall, 6.2% is not too bad a fee since I am assuming that if you do not use Paypal to receive money, you may not even get this sale so you be losing out on the $93.80.

 

Yes paypal is cheating now a days in such mere amounts also. Earler in this month,when i recieved 100$,they deducted 3.45$,but today when i received a payment of 100$,the tax was 4.20$.

Its really irritating!!
Im having a Premier account.

 

Do u have business or premiere account? For $100,fees should be arounnd $4.

 

Paypal fees will vary depending on a few factors and it is all listed on their site, so you can't say Paypal is cheating you if you get different deductions for the same amount of money received.

 

If you read the fees, you will understand why it is so. If the person pays from a balance not from the US, they will tag on the 2.5% foreign exchange fees.

Also there is a sliding scale of between 2.4% to 3.4% for fees and the fees you be charged would depend on the volume of sale you have for the prior month. See https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_display-receiving-fees-outside&countries=ROW

If you do not like what Paypal is doing by offering services at low fees, why don't you find some other solutions which would be better for you.

 

The answer from Paypal is that my fee is 5.9%+0.3 following the standard for other countries.

 

There ya go, equates to exactly $6.20,

 

5.9$ + 30 cents = 6.2$, so it's fair

 

Yes,its pretty normal

 

Yes It's normal the Paypal Fee stracture is:

Fees for receiving purchase payments

Fees to receive payments for purchases of goods and services vary depending on monthly sales volume.

Purchase payments received (monthly) Fee per transaction
$0.00 USD - $3,000.00 USD 3.4% + $0.30 USD
$3,000.01 USD - $10,000.00 USD 2.9% + $0.30 USD
$10,000.01 USD - $100,000.00 USD 2.7% + $0.30 USD
> $100,000.00 USD 2.4% + $0.30 USD

But you can avoid these if you said the person those will send you payment if they send you payment to choose "Personal" That case he will charge normal and you will get actual. But hardly other will agree with this option if he/she want to pay you for product/services

 

yes the strokes are pretty normal. there is no unusual.

 

paypal fees is very ., different to diff , depends on cc charge and country
