Hi there. Currently new in paypal and I still somewhat don't understand how the fees work. I have a family in the US and I currently live in the Philippines. If ever they send money using "Send to friends and family" option will I be subjected to Paypal service fee?
For ex. If my dad sent me $450 how much will I receive in terms of PHP, as it is converted right away when it reaches my paypal balance?
Thanks and Have a good day

HI @jdon112,
Welcome to our Community!
Cross-border fees are applied to international personal payments and purchase payments. Cross-border fees are paid by either the sender or recipient of the payment, not both. Cross-border fees are charged due to the extra costs involved in processing multi-currency payments.
International Personal Payments:
- If you send money using PayPal balance or your bank account and introducing a new flat fee of $2.99 or $4.99 per transaction depending on the recipient’s country.
- If you send money using your credit card, debit card, or PayPal credit you will be charged the new flat fee per transaction depending on the recipient’s country + 2.9% of the transaction amount + a fixed fee based on the currency.
You will find details on the fixed fees other information here International Fees. Please note the funds will be placed in dollars on your account but once you withdraw the funds with transferred into Pesos, this currency value changes.
Thanks
Martin
