Does PayPal accept international payments

Yes, PayPal accepts international payments, letting users send and request money with people in more than 110 countries. A cross-border fee usually applies to international personal transfers.

A PayPal international transfer is made from your account on the PayPal website or app, and the recipient can be found using their name, email address, mobile number or PayPal handle.

1. Open Send and Request: Log in to PayPal on the web or in the app and choose the Send and Request option.
2. Add the recipient: Enter the person's name, email address, mobile phone number or PayPal handle.
3. Set the amount: Type how much you want to send and pick the currency the recipient should get.
4. Check the costs: Look over the exchange rate, the transfer fee and the total amount before going ahead.
5. Send: Confirm the payment method you are using and then send the money.

Costs for international PayPal payments come from a few places, and anyone reading a PayPal overview should check each of them before paying.

• Cross-border fee: International personal transfers normally carry a fee, which can be a percentage or a fixed amount depending on the region.
• Currency conversion: When a payment needs converting, PayPal adds a markup percentage on top of the base exchange rate.
• Funding source: Paying with a credit or debit card generally costs more than paying from a verified bank balance.
