When someone pays you, you can leave it in your account and pay other poeple from that balance, deposit the money straight into your checking (if you request them to do so), or get them to send you a check. The comission is approximately 3-4%. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jay 1 Report post Posted August 11, 2004 That depends on what type of account you have. You'll have to read paypal's FAQ's if you want a more specific answer. I'm not exactly sure how they calculate it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You just can't accept money from a credit card (You have to upgrade to premiere account to accept CCs, that's when they start charging you fees). You have to specify to a buyer that you'll accept non-CC paypal payments only (they pay from a checking account or paypal balance). I think they also charge a fee to both account types for curreny conversion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
