What is "Fees"?
The Fees metric refers to the charges that PayPal deducts from every transaction made through its platform. These fees are calculated as a percentage of the total transaction value and vary depending on the transaction type, location, currency, and account type. Typically, PayPal charges a standard fee of 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction for domestic sales and 4.4% of the transaction amount plus a fixed fee for international sales. Merchants can view their transaction fees in their PayPal account and use this metric to track and manage their expenses.
Example: A seller who uses PayPal to process payments for their products notices that their total Fees for the month have increased, despite having the same number of transactions.
