Hello, So i finished integrating paypal into my website for accepting payments and decided to make a test payment with €1.18 euro. The payment went through successfully but a fee of €0.4 euro was deducted from the money. How is this possible? This is almost 35% paypal fee. It is ridiculous, i know there is an anomaly somewhere. Can someone please tell me why paypal is charging such amounts in fees. Can i go ahead to start accepting real payments on my website with such huge fees?
