get paid via paypal as a friend?
my problem is that despite regular PayPal profiles cracking, if I start receiving payments PayPal asks for information on the business model and after I tell them that it's cosmetics they close the account, so in order to avoid PayPal asking me for a lot of information, believe me Is it a good idea if I get paid by customers via PayPal as a friend?
do you think paypal will continue to ask for information on why I get paid? consider that on average I receive 5000 euros per month |

No,it would be fee avoidance. |

Don't you think that 5000 euros per month from "friends & family" will ring some bell in PayPal system?
You will not solve the problem this way.
Spread sales across multiple accounts and be prepared to provide what they ask for... |
Re: get paid via paypal as a friend?
friends and family receiving of this high amount per month is dangerous for account health indeed |

Re: get paid via paypal as a friend?
what kind of cosmetics were you selling?
Do you have your own website or selling on a sales venue? |

Re: get paid via paypal as a friend?
That amount of volume sales amounts would be viewed as fee avoidance.
Depending on how you are selling your product it would make more sense to use a merchant bank solution. |

why? in case of F&F payments the sender pays the fees (not receiver). There's an exception though - sending to the same country pp. In this case there will be no fees. Quote:

Re: get paid via paypal as a friend?
Friend and family is free in local currency if the sender uses cash in his Paypal account or bank account,if he uses a credit card,yes,he has to pay a fee.
as PAypal has to pay a fee.
Like the other suggests,apply for a merchant account instead of using Paypal if you have your own website |

| Paypal offers you a service and charges you a fee to pay its bill(rent,utilities,computer,payroll),the fee your sender pays if he uses a credit card,is for Paypal paying its own merchant service provider.
There is no free lunch,F & F is free if you do not abuse it |
Re: get paid via paypal as a friend?
OP, analyze your business model and avoid this f&f nonsense that is risky |

Re: get paid via paypal as a friend?
I made F&F payments between my accs, I know what I'm saying, there's a fee when sending F&F. I pay it as a sender. When i make a GS payment, the receiver pays the fees. I speak about pp funds in both cases, no credit card money. Quote:

Re: get paid via paypal as a friend?
Paypal has a table which shows fees by country when you send money via friend and family.
You said you sent money between your accounts using Paypal fund,are these accounts in the same country and no currency translation? |
