Hey all, I understand that if you have money in your paypal account and you use the "gift" option to pay someone for coins, etc that there are no fees for the seller so many sellers here, ebay, etc like that option.

Is it possible to send money using your credit card on paypal as a gift or does that not work??

Thanks!

    The reciever pays the fees.
    Also the free option has no buyer or seller protections.

    from the Paypal site.....

    Transaction fees for domestic payments
    It's always free to send money to friends and family when you use your PayPal balance or bank account. Fees apply only if the sender uses a credit or debit card, or if you receive any payment for goods or services. There are also:
    •No monthly fees to maintain a PayPal account.
    •No setup fees.
    •No gateway fees.
    •No fees for multiple eBay and merchant tools.
    Does not apply to Website Payments Pro or Virtual Terminal.
