Request payment

Hi this is my first time using paypal to get paid. Im selling something on craigslist and the buyer doesnt live around me and wants to use paypal. He has said that he will pay any fees from using paypal. I know when I go to request money it says there will be a small fee when I recieve the payment. So since he says he will pay for it do I include it somehow in the amount being requested or how do I do this?

Hello KaylaJN and Welcome to the Community Robot wink


I would be glad to answer your question!

 

You are right, when a seller receives money a small fee will be charged. However, when the buyer pays the request there is an option for the buyer to pay the fee. If the buyer would like to pay the fee you can advise them to select this option.

 

I hope this helps.
