I look much websites which choose PayPal for payment system. It implies that we have to PayPal account. Does PayPal take money from us if we have account at there? How much? THX.
PayPal Fee
I'm not sure what you mean, but no they don't take your money. If you have a business account though, they take a certain percentage of the money you get. You don't really need a business account though, but if there's too much activity, it will force you to upgrade to a business account. So yeah, sometimes you lose money, but it's not a lot.
I think for every transaction they charge .50$ and 2-3% depending on the amount. I am not sure though. Will confirm and let you know.
But it doesnt hurt.. taking the fact that absolutely no risk is involved.

I don't think you'll have a problem with paypal. They just take little percentage of your money per transaction. Just go to their website for more information.
This is a little old, but I can answer your questions
I have a PayPal business account and to be completely honest, it's okay that they take out fees.
I think your question was do they make you pay fees if you purchase something using PayPal... as far as I know, they do not do that. However if you are having people send you money and you have a business account, they do take out a certain pertentage.
For instance, I have been selling graphics for about $20.00, each person who sends me $20.00, PayPal takes out a fee of around $0.88 cents. Not that bad... Paypal is a very reliable website, it's really nice! The fees won't break you... it's less than sales tax (at least in my state).

I like paypal. THough I think they charge too much in my country
What is the difference between your country and the US
^ U.S. is probably cheaper. I suppose...?
Sometimes people say, "only to U.S, no international"
Personally I don't mind, but shipping is expensive.

Everybody should have one of these accounts. A lot of website will gives you discounts if you pay with it.
Paypal business accounts are charged 30 cents plus 2.9% of total transaction. Not too bad. Paypal business account allows you to accept credit cards without the need for more costly merchant's accounts. Buyers pay no additional fees.
Visit PayPal's website for more info on personal and business accounts.

If you mean, should we have a Paypal account to buy something from these websites, the answer is no.
You just use a credit card to buy , but the money goes from your credit card to Paypal first before going to the website. You don't need a paypal account for that. And the websites usually add the paypal charges to the cost so that you don't have to pay anything extra from the amount the website asks.
If you want to receive money through Paypal, then you need an account. And they take a percentage as discussed above
yeah I upgraded my account and then they started to deduct 10 percent from my transactions!
I talked to my friend an ebay expert and he said I should delete my account and open a new one. So I did and I know not to upgrade however you can only get credit card payments if you upgrade and Im not a business so its OK!
Hope This halps you!
