I'm trying to send money as a gift to a friend but don't want to be charged, and don't want them to be charged either. Is there a way that is entirely free to send money? I'm sending from my bank account to their bank account, by way of their e-mail. I've tried the "personal" option and either way, it seems to charge the recipient 3% in order to receive the funds. Any thoughts?

If you select the family and friends option then it is free to send a personal payment as long as you are not funding it with a credit card AS LONG AS you are both in the same country.

Is this US only? Whenever I send funds to my family (PayPal to PayPal), they pay a fee. We're in the same country, but not the US.

Thank you for your answer. The country is Jordan. I'm also wondering about the fee in Brazil but I'm guessing it'll be the same as Jordan.
