A question about receiving a payment

[Amir1346]

Hi Everybody,

I would like to know whether PayPal will subtract any fee from the payment that one receives from a customer through PayPal.me. If anybody is aware of the rules, please let me know.

If its a personal paypal.me account then the buyer 'should' tick the goods / services option when they click the link to pay if they are purchasing goods from you. So yes then you would pay a fee.

Its against paypal rules to sell and accept friends / family payments and can lead to your paypal account being limited.

Whilst it does stop a buyer opening a paypal dispute as they have no buyer protection it does not stop them doing a chargeback via their card issuer and you would lose as you would have no seller protection.
