easyhosting Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 this was confirmed by paypal today Dear , Thank you for contacting PayPal regarding the fee charged to you when you receive payment for a purchase. I can confirm that it is against our Acceptable Use Policy to include the PayPal fee in the overall price of your item. While our User Agreement does not specifically state that you cannot add the fee onto your overall item price, it does state that all users must pay a fee of 3.4% + 20p when receiving payment for a purchase. I can assure you that we regularly review all PayPal account activities and will monitor all item prices, including any extra pricing which may imply that the user has added an extra price to cover the PayPal fee. I advise you to continue pricing your items as normal, while also paying the standard PayPal fee for receiving the payment. I am happy to have been able to resolve this issue for you today. I hope this information has been helpful and thank you for your time. Yours sincerely, Eva PayPal Copyright © 1999-2011 PayPal. All rights reserved. PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A.

user101 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Why does every debate on this subject turns to what PayPal allows or not? Does world revolve just around PayPal? We have a very popular payment processor in our country, which allows this so it would be a very welcome feature! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
