is this possible?
we want to offer a variety of services and products from our clients to the public - and charge them a flat £1 fee for each transaction
for example - 50 products at £25 - we charge £1 per product sold
100 x service A at £89 - we charge a £1 per service sold
now what we are concerned about is the fees paypal would take on each sale (100 x £89 - £8900)
when actually we are sending it right to the client minus a £1 fee.
is there anyway around this?
thanks

You are selling a "service" so you have to pay a fee.

Hi,
If you're an advanced coder you could try Adaptive Payments, Chained Payment:
Here is the scenario where the fees are transferred over to the primary receiver.
