How much is PayPal
PayPal charges a combination of fees when receiving international payments in India. Incoming transactions typically incur a fee of around 4% to 5% plus a fixed amount, depending on the currency and transaction size. Currency conversion adds another markup of roughly 3% to 4% above the mid-market rate. These costs can add up quickly for exporters and freelancers receiving regular payments from abroad.
