How to deal with the paypal commision is the best way?
Post 1 of 2

As we know that paypal is a very popular payment among buyers now because its sicurity and timeliness.

As supplier of game accessories, accept paypal payment is very important for us to get more and more business.  But commision of paypal is so high. Paypal charge more than 4% as commission. That is mean that if sellers accept 500 USD amount via paypal and paypal will charge 20USD as commission! So the Sellers actually can get only 480 USD at their end.

This is really a problem for us, because most of our products are very little things with very little profit. If delete the commision which taken by the paypal, we nearly earn nothing. That is not a good deal. However, we don't  think it is a good way to ask buyers to pay the commision. Our boss is considering to don't accept paypal payment in the furture. If like this, we will lose lots of clients. We don't want to do like this.

So I want to know if there is any one can give us some suggestions?  How to deal with this problem is better?  Your help will be highly respected. Thank you in advance.

Seems like you must raise prices in order to keep up the service. Perhaps you won't lose as many customers with this as with having no PayPal payment option. Customer service has its price.
