Beginning August 6, 2004, PayPal will expand its fee structure to better serve sellers of all sizes. With this new performance-based pricing, sellers can pay as little as 1.9% + $0.30 for domestic transactions.
Advantages for sellers include:
Lower fees as their business grows
Automatic calculation of rates each month
A consistently cost-effective way to securely and easily accept payments online
Will there be any immediate effect on sellers?
No, sellers will continue to pay their current rate. When the new pricing tiers go into effect on August 6, 2004, sellers may become eligible for a lower rate. Eligibility and price tier will be determined at the beginning of every month based on the seller's received volume for the previous calendar month. Eligible sellers will need to apply before receiving lower rates. Sellers can view their monthly volume in their Monthly Account Statements located on the My Account page under the History tab.
