  Re: Upcoming factoring changes due to PayPal fee structure.
 
(...) Hmm...have you considered charging an overhead-covering fee of, say, the lower of 5% or $5.00? If I needed to send someone in Europe $75.00 and I could pay you $78.75 via PayPal to make that happen, then in the absense of direct P2P (...) (24 years ago, 8-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.services)
 
  Re: Upcoming factoring changes due to PayPal fee structure.
 
(...) Since you already know the amount Paypal is going to eat I suggest you simply add that amount to the factoring fees you are currently charging. However, since they can be quite large that might make people use paper (cheques/MO's) more, so you (...) (24 years ago, 8-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.services)
 
  Checks strongly discouraged for Factoring for the next few weeks
 
As with when I went to Zurich, processing factoring checks will be difficult for me while I am in the UK which is carded to last 5-6 weeks. So, as I did before, I am surcharging factoring checks with the "Josette handling fee" on receipt, and the (...) (24 years ago, 8-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.services)
 
  Upcoming factoring changes due to PayPal fee structure.
 
I think I am going to have to institute some factoring changes beyond the rebalancing I alluded to earlier. PayPal is very convenient. The upcoming changes in PayPal mean that they are essentially creating two classes of money. Unless I refuse to (...) (24 years ago, 8-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.services)

  Re: PayPal Changes
 
(...) One problem they have for credit cards is that there isn't much competition in the credit card world (or can a business pick a card servicing agent the same way the consumer gets to pick the bank which handles their account?). I'd be curious (...) (24 years ago, 7-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.services)

(...) simply (...) Yep. This fee, for those wondering where it is described, is buried in the "announcements" section after you log in to your account. It's rather hard to find, I just went looking for it again and I can't seem to locate it. I think (...) (24 years ago, 7-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.services)

(...) Could someone clarify this point? Where is this information located and to which types of accounts does it apply? I scanned the terms of service at x.com but didn't find this information, just a fee schedule. -- Richard (24 years ago, 7-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.services)

In the beginning they used to give money away for free just (...) (24 years ago, 7-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.services)

(...) I highly suspect that most surcharges hover around 2% - at least, that's what I'm familiar with in the IT service industry. Not sure if retail gets a different rate. James (24 years ago, 7-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.services)
 
  Re: PayPal Changes
 
(...) Considering that credit card transactions cost money this is reasonable. Ask how many stores don't pay fees every time you use a credit card there (this is one reason many merchants have a minimum charge for credit card purchases - though I (...)

  Re: PayPal Changes
 
As soon as I got notification I canceled my account. $12 a month is ridiculous, I hope I can still sign up for a paypal account, and not be disqualified because I once had an x.com account. I will use these services as long as they remain free, any (...) (24 years ago, 6-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.services)

  Re: PayPal Changes
 
In addition to this, X.com now has a $100 average monthly minumum balance. Violators will be charged a $12 (yes, that's correct) monthly account maintenance fee. I'm guessing that in both cases (PayPal and X), people simply aren't keeping the amount (...) (24 years ago, 6-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.services)

  Re: Paypal down?
