And that's why I'm saying... there is no fixed fee. Upgrading to Premier changes your fee schedule and removes the limit... how much it "costs" you will depend on how people elect to pay: Receive payments funded by PayPal Balance, PayPal Instant Transfer or PayPal eCheck Personal: Free Premier: 1.9% to 2.9% + $0.30 USD Receive payments funded by Credit Card, Debit Card or Buyer Credit Personal: 4.9% + $0.30 USD (limit of 5 transactions per 12 month period)** for domestic or U.S. transactions, 2% + applicable Fees Fees for cross border payments, 4.9% plus $0.30 USD for card payments received using PayPal on Skype Premier: 1.9% to 2.9% + $0.30 USD Premier isn't a "paying account" as there is no charge for an account, ever. They just remove the limits and change the fees.

That’s what I mean. You aren’t allowed to accept recurring subscriptions until you have a Premier account.

The answer to your question is "There is no cost." The REAL answer is that after you upgrade to a Premier or Business account, the fees change. Fee listing. They also remove the $500 per month receive limit.

Thanks. I just looked into the recurring subscription stuff for PayPal and unfortunately I’d have to upgrade to a paying account to do so. I also can’t find any information about how much it costs to upgrade (I can’t find the price anywhere!).

Thanks Ryan,

If I could make a suggestion; a way to do a recurring donation (like a subscription) so we could give x dollars a month, for example, would be a good thing. I think PayPal has a way to do that although I’m far from an expert on it.

Keep adding stuff to the site, it’s looking good!
