Here : The Fee Calculator - Calculate PayPal merchant fees for credit cards

.

 

I’m not sure who else got this, but eBay is starting to roll out a new payment platform that they run. A month or two ago I was asked to be a tester for the program so now my items no longer accept PayPal. They charge a smaller payment fee than PayPal did, so I’m saving money, but there are hassles too. One of which is I no longer have a correct fee calculator to use. From what I’ve read, this will be rolling out to everyone over the next year or two.

 

So payments will go Direct through ebay ? Interesting as they own Paypal , that said i know a lot of people who get confused with all of paypal & if ebay had a direct Credit card system in place it may Draw in more buyers ?

 

Yes, that’s exactly what’s happening now. Payments go to eBay, I get the money sent to my bank account each night. This should make it more streamlined for buyers, one stop shopping.

 

Paypal and eBay separated a couple years back as companies. Ever since eBay has been looking to wean its users off of Paypal.

They will likely ban Paypal's use on eBay down the road.

 

wow ! thanks for that Update , i had no idea people are so used to paypal now ....

 

Fees have averaged 13% per transaction for me over time. I just estimate 13% whenever analyze my sales results.

 

Please stop using logic. Way too many buttons to push on a calculator for this method to be beneficial.

 

You could damage a brain cell or two.

 

wow! This is an eye opener​

 

I've moved this to the eBay forum area and stuck it.

 

Any sign of one for the UK yet? I mean, I have a shortened version ("Too much") but it'd be handy to be able to use this tool.

Yup. Still multiply your sale price x 0.13 if you’re using PayPal.
