Title: Paypal Micro - Normal
Post by: Kerioak~Christine on March 23, 2013, 05:32

I don't know if anyone is aware/interested but if you are selling items for under £9  you can pay lower fees to Paypal using their Micropayment option (https://micropayments.paypal-labs.com/) .  This does however have the disadvantage that if the payment is over this amount then you end up paying higher fees.

It would be great if we could have a "what if" option under £9.00 uses one email address and over £9.01 uses another for Paypal (or equivalent for whichever country)

You need two PP accounts for that as well.

I know, and have two set up, one for normal and one for micro, which was why I thought of it, anything to pay less fees :)

Can one bank account be used on two different PayPal accounts?

    You can add a bank account to one PayPal account at a time. However, if approved, you may be able to add the bank to a second PayPal account. You will be informed when linking the bank to the second PayPal account if you have been approved.

I did contact Paypal a few weeks ago and asked if they had any automated method of sending funds to a particular account based on amount and they said no

They do have that option, if this is what you mean

And if you want to do a sweep from one PP acc to another PP acc then you need to have a master PP and secondary PP account. But I think thats for accounts trading above 30k dollar per month only. If I ever reach that number, I dont care what is happening with my PP account  ;D
