PayPal gateway fees

I just want to get it confirmed if there are no additional fees for a seller when he uses the PayPal gateway:

 

Add PayPal buttons to your website. No monthly fee
From 3.4% to as low as 1.9% + 20p per transaction

 

This is all I have to pay for when a buyer makes a transaction. And it shouldn't matter if the buyer is paying in another currency, because the buyer is always paying for the currency conversion, either with PayPal calculation or with his own bank fee.

 

Other gateways have additional fees that apply for currency conversion and cross-border payments, so does PayPal but that is only when you pay for goods using your email address to send/receive a payment, and not through a payment gateway, because on the PayPal payment gateway you can't choose who is going to pay for conversion fees, buyers always pay them.
