I am using paypal for the last six months and so far what I have understood about their fee structure is that for every $10 they charge a flat 69 cents. But for lower amount of money received they charge a very weird amount which is higher percentage in comparison to the flat 69 cents for every $10.

I received a payment through paypal earlier today for $5 and they charged me a .69 fee...

In my case I received a net of $5.50 out of $6.0 sent to my account. That's strange. The news is Paypal is actively promoting its Paypal credit card only that this offer is limited to qualified Paypal members in the US.

I am very happy because I have free verified accounts and there are no fees on any transfer. I have transfer more than $1000 in last 8 months.

Ultimately paypal is going to be cheaper for smaller merchants, once you get past $2500 a month, should consider a regular merchant account.

Had a problem a while back (actually its ongoing).. I had people paying 1$ per month for links on my site.. I forgot that there would be a .66 charge for each one! So that isn't great I made like 3 bucks instead of 20 bucks.. oh well live and learn.

In my opinion PayPal is the number 1 worldwide. I never had problems with it, the fees are alright ( exception : really small amounts ) and it is very popular ( not only in the USA, over here in Europe, too ). At the moment there is no reason for me to change the provider.

I also use paypal. I think they have the cheapest processing fees. But I know some people that prefers money bookers and Xoom.

I'm very happy with PayPal. It allowed me to purchase lots of stuff I can't ever imagine. It's reliable, working properly, good customer support, cheap for me, etc. The payment processor I have tried.
