Transaction Fees

Hello Paypal Community!

Last week I sent several requests for money pertaining to my jewelry business. There were no fees. Today, I was charged $1.03. Can anyone tell me why? 

Thanks!

How did you send the requests?

Was it an invoice or money request OR did the buyer 'send' the payments and if so what option did they use?

Only if you are selling then you should be paying a fee per transaction.

The only time you don't pay a fee is if you receive a friends / family payment HOWEVER that is against paypal rules if its for a sale and can lead to your paypal account being limited and also loses you any seller protection for chargebacks or unauthorised transactions.
