How much percentage does Paypal get once you got a payment from other individual?

It depends on your volume. It is between 1.9% - 2.9%.

depends also on how it was sent - from PP balance or C/Card, and your account type (personal, business, plus etc)

and mass-pay items are free (for reciever, £1 for sender)

That info is easily available on the PayPal website.

I agree.

It depends on volume and also the core payment method. Credit cards are more expensive than debit cards.

I think it might be even less if it comes from a balance already in the buyers account.

Don't hold me to that though.

Transaction Fees for Domestic Payments - PayPal

Sending money

It's always free to send money to friends and family when you use your PayPal balance or bank account. Fees apply only if the sender uses a credit or debit card, or if you receive any payment for goods or services. There are also:

No monthly fees to maintain a PayPal account.
No setup fees.
No gateway fees.
No fees for multiple eBay and merchant tools.

Receiving purchase payments

The standard rate for receiving payments for goods and services is 2.9%.

If you receive more than $3,000.00 USD per month, you're eligible to apply for PayPal's Merchant Rate - which lowers your fees as your sales volume increases. Your fees can be as low as 1.9%, based on your previous month's sales volume. To start using PayPal for your businesses call sales at: 866-769-1991.

Quote:

$0.00 USD - $3,000.00 USD -- 2.9% + $0.30 USD
$3,000.01 USD - $10,000.00 USD -- 2.5% + $0.30 USD
$10,000.01 USD - $100,000.00 USD -- 2.2% + $0.30 USD
> $100,000.00 USD -- 1.9% + $0.30 USD

Also it depends from what country you send/receive.

5% is too much, buddy.

It depends own your account but I thought its about 1.9% - 2.9%.

The percentage depends on the country and the type of accounts. If you are in US, it would be 2.9% highest, while in UK it is 3.4%

The following website should have all these calculations:

Hello,

These are the updated merchant fees for Paypal:

The percentage depends on which country you are in. Like ours in Singapore for every $2 someone pays us, we get $1.68

You can contact paypal directly or use the link below as they provided an online calculator if you're selling internationally.
