Where is the report for PayPal fees paid?

There is no report that shows PayPal fees. 

Customer support gave instructions to download the reports available and none of them show the exact amount of paypal fees. 

 

This is a major problem and PayPal is silent.

That is not the page I was refering to. That is Activity download. In all my posts in this thread I was referring to “Financial Summary”.

Maybe that's only on a business account. Mine is a personal account.

 

Secondly, in my "statements" are, the only option are PDF downloads. 

 

Thirdly, in the PDF documents there are strange discrepancies - the attached screen shot shows how the "total fees" for the period is 0 and yet it's clear that some of the transactions have fees.

 

Fourthly, since it's not in an excel with the whole year, you can only look at one month at a time. 

 

Fifthly, this is such a simple feature that someone might want to understand how much they've paid to PayPal, that it's surprising and almost suspicious that PayPal does not provide a simple itemized report of all the transactions including fees happened on the account.Screen Shot 2021-11-07 at 13.04.24.pngScreen Shot 2021-11-07 at 13.03.51.png

Re: My concern is not knowing what the Invoicing fee will be at different dollar amounts. e.g., $80 invoice fees total $3.28 but $60 invoice fees total $4.00.

Why won't PayPal share that? They created a formula. It's like the postage & weight charts from USPS. 

How will I know if PayPal jips me by accident - or on purpose - by charging me a different fee one time or more?  

 

What do other businesses use to foresee, plan, estimate future costs per sale?  How do they plan their products' prices?  Do they create their own chart by recording the fee deductions as payments come in?
