Specific Fee For paypal.me?

[theap]

Hi there, it would be great if anyone could answer these questions about paypal.me

What is the base fee for receiving money through PayPal.me - for 'goods and services'?

Apart from the credit card fee, border fees, the general fee and currency conversion fee, are there any other fees?

If i send someone in another country a link, for example the US, asking for a specific amount of money in pounds, will it convert to dollars for example for them when they are paying it and will they be able to pay for it and for me to receive it in pounds?

Thank you!

Fees are the same as you pay using your main paypal account.

So that would be 3.4% + 20p, or perhaps this is the credit card value? I've looked and i can't see the base value for just a transaction. I have also seen the number 2.9% plus + 20p somewhere but not sure which if it is one of these ones.

Info in the FAQ in link below. Standard UK > UK fee is 3.4% + 20p per transaction.

Does it cost me anything to receive money?

If you’ve set up your PayPal.Me link for “Friends and family,” it’s free for you to receive GBP from people within the UK.

If you have a PayPal Business account – or you have Friends & Family selected, but the person sending you money opts for PayPal Buyer Protection – the payment is a "Goods and Services" payment. That means you'll pay the standard PayPal fee.

If you get a lot of payments from other countries, take a minute to look at our fees since the amount can vary from country to country based on their local policies.
