RedRock,

You are correct in most "Personal" payments, there are no fees associated with sending the money. 

However; if you choose to send money to someone using a credit card, there will be credit card processing fees that need to be paid.  When sending them as a personal payment, the sender can choose to pay for the fees themselves or choose to have the receiver pay the fees.

I hope this clarifies any confusion you may have had with the process..
