PayPal fees are usually a combination of a percentage fee and a fixed fee per transaction. The calculator uses the simple formula fee = amount x percentage + fixed fee, then subtracts the fee from the original amount to estimate your net payout.
The default numbers are only starting points. Your real PayPal fee can change by country, account type, domestic versus international payment, currency conversion, card funding source, and business agreement. If your dashboard shows a different rate, enter that rate in the fields above.
The “Ask for” result shows how much you should invoice so that after PayPal fees, you receive your desired amount. This is useful when the client has agreed to cover processor fees or when you need a predictable net amount for a fixed-scope project.
Check whether the payment includes currency conversion, whether PayPal will apply international pricing, and whether your local tax or VAT rules affect the amount you need to charge. The calculator estimates processing fees; it is not tax, legal, or accounting advice.
