A relative wants to set up an automatic payment from their US bank account to my Australia bank account. Is there some way the bank can make the payment automatically to my PayPal account instead of using a very expensive wire transfer?
The US bank account has to be linked to a US PayPal account and the person has to remember to send you a PayPal payment every month. A workaround is to create a recurring donation button email link to send to the US PayPal user to set this recurring donation on their PayPal account. Otherwise, there is no other way to automate it to recur every month.
Thanks for your reply Sharpiemaker. Unfortunately that won't work because the person with the paypal account would have to get the money from the bank trust account themselves and pay taxes on it. The administrator wants the trust fund to pay me directly.
