Probably an "administrative fee" or else a change in all other fees with a

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 international transfers via PayPal, I would be more than happy to pay you
$3.75 in factoring fees as it would mean that I wouldn't have to go to the
bank or the post office or even worry much about currency conversion.

Charging a simple fee is tempting but based on my analysis not practical. I
still have to allocate the fee among myself and the factoree(s) involved and
in some cases the exchange rate haircut that one factoree or the other takes
exceeds the 5%. Worth mulling over though.
