Cross border transfer fees

Hi,

I'm hoping someone can help explain this to me. I'm trying to send money from UK to a friend in US. Transaction is personal (gift) for $600 and I'm funding it from a verified bank account. Paypal says fees for this should be 0.5% but it's more like 3.5% with no explanation.  

Thanks for your help.

Welcome to the boards!

 

Can you tell us more?  What is the payment amount?  What is the fee that is displaying?  Are you using the Personal Payments tab to send the payment?  Providing more details will help our community assist you. 

 

Thanks!
