Online or in-store Rate No Fee (when no currency conversion is involved) Selling with PayPal When you buy or sell goods or services, make any other commercial type of transaction, send or receive a charity donation or receive a payment when you “request money” using PayPal, we call that a “commercial transaction”. For the listings of selling rates, please visit our PayPal Merchant Fees Page. Sending and receiving payments When you send funds (initiated from the “Friends and Family” tab of the “Send” flow) to, or receive funds into your PayPal account from, friends and family without making an underlying commercial transaction (that is, the payment is not for the purchase of goods or services or for making any other commercial transaction), we call that a “personal transaction”. Personal transactions are limited in availability and may not be available in some markets. If you use your credit card as the payment method for a personal transaction, you may be charged a cash-advance fee by your credit card company. The rates relating to personal transactions are set out below.
