Request money fee

[rossrac]

Hi there!

I requested money from someone who doesn't have paypal and she sent the money but when I received it, it's less than what I requested and I paid for a fee. Is there really a fee for this transaction? Is there a way to not have fees for the request?

You pay a fee to paypal for receiving payments for goods or services regardless of your account type.

That fee helps fund the service.

A 'money request' is a goods/services payment.
