I wana send someone $200. I will be sending this using my paypal balance which is more than $200. My question is will the receiver get full $200 or less because paypal will cut their percentage?

 

Paypal shouldn't charge anything from this money because they already have gave me this money after cutting their fee.

 

Also if I transfer money from my linked bank account, will the paypal cut fee from that?

For Personal Payments, the following applies:

  • The fee depends on the Payment Method you use. 
  • The fee is paid by either the sender or recipient, not both.
  • The sender of the payment generally determines who pays the fee at the time the sender makes the payment. If you send a Personal Payment from a third party (non PayPal) website or by using a third party’s party’s product or service , then the third party will determine if the sender or recipient of the Personal Payment will pay the Personal Payment fee. This will be disclosed to you by the third party before the Personal Payment is initiated.
  • It is free to send a Personal Payment to someone in the United States in U.S. Dollars if you use your bank or balance as the exclusive Payment Method. All other Personal Payments include a fee as noted below.
  • Additional fees apply if you are sending or receiving money to or from a country outside the United States, or transacting in a foreign currency.
  • If you use your credit card as the Payment Method for a Personal Payment, you may be charged a cash-advance fee by your credit card company.
  • In some instances, Personal Payment pricing may not be available. In these instances, all payments must be Purchase Payments.
  • Personal Payments may not be available on non-PayPal websites or other applications that offer you the ability to send a payment from your Account.
  • Personal Payments may not be sent to recipients in India.
