PayPal Transaction Fees

32

People are charged a small fee when they pay you

When people pay you online through PayPal, they are charged a very small convenience fee

You never have to worry about absorbing these fees; they are automatically added on top of the program cost you are charging

For instance, if you set a $100 cost for a program, you will receive $100 from each registrant; people will be charged slightly over $100 to account for the fee

Paying online is very convenient. People feel the fee is worth the added convenience. That’s why PayPal has grown to be so popular.

33

Breakdown of fees

On each transaction, PayPal takes a 2.9% + 30 cents convenience fee

StadiumRoar keeps an additional 1%, which is used to maintain your software and pay out donations to sports-and-recreation programs (see the Go Paperless Fund section to learn more about these donations)

No fee is ever taken from you, but rather, the people registering

34

Refunds

If someone suggests a refund from you, feel free to pay them however you would like. You are in no way required to send refunds through PayPal. You can write a check, provide cash, etc.
