How much does PayPal business cost

PayPal Business charges no monthly fee to open an account, but transaction costs add up quickly. For receiving international payments, PayPal typically deducts around 4.4% plus a fixed fee per transaction, and currency conversion comes with an additional markup of 3% to 4% above the mid-market rate.

Indian exporters and freelancers often find these combined fees eat significantly into their earnings, especially on larger invoices.
