I am about to send $8 dollars to my friend and when I check the fee is almost $5 (to be exact 4.99)

 

Is this fee correct? more than half the price I am going to send....

c. If you use your credit card as the payment method for a personal payment, you may be charged a cash-advance fee by your credit card company.

d. The fee is borne by the sender.
