how does international payments work ?

[hockey97]

Hi, I am setting up my paypal business account. I am working on my own website. I now need to figure out the fees that I will incur. I am in the U.S and do understand the fees when dealing with people domestically. Now, I  am confused about customers from international  countries sending money to me. 

I  need someone to explain to me what fees are meant for business accounts recieving payments. I checked the terms but haven't found anywhere that says business account  fees... mostly personal account fees. 

I would like to know the fees for international countries  to send money to me to pay for my services.

Also, does it matter what credit card they use?  like will the fees change depending on what credit cards they use...  I am asking for international and even domenstic customers or is this a static fee that paypal will charge us regardless to what kind of credit card they use?

There's a static fee for each country. It doesn't matter to you if the buyer pays with his bank account or any one of his cards, you'll still get charged x percent since he's from x country. If you receive over 3000 in payments in one month, your fees are reduced.

Make sure you're logged in to Paypal and go here:

Select the specifc country you wish to see the fees for.
