I'm expecting an international payment, but the sender just informed me that I need to clear a a transaction fee. I cannot find the payment when logging onto my PayPal account so how can I make this payment if i only have the transaction ID?

 

How can I cover the transaction fee of the international transaction?

You never pay any upfront fee as a seller.

Ignore scammers that send fake Paypal emails telling you that you need to pay an upfront fee to verify/upgrade/or any other reason to 'accept' a payment.

You would certainly never have to send funds via another payment processor/bitcoins/ or tokens/vouchers of any sort.

Any fee is auto deducted by Paypal at the same instant the remainder of the payment is credited to your Paypal account balance.

No funds in your balance = you have not yet been paid, even pending/held payments will still show in your Paypal account activity.
