might be different for UK based accounts then - not 100% sure, but then I never had payments in over $200/£100

You've never received more than $200/mo? I think that's the limit of a personal account... I'll go look it up later.

Nope, meant per month... As people who aren't running a business don't need to be receiving more than $200/mo according to them ... And I've received transactions of $1200 before; when I was doing server maintenance I got one fail insert per month lol

argh - we aren't talking about the forum then If people pay me on my business they send me payment via other methods - I do not trust Paypal for true business activities.

Well, the IPN will be a requirment, which will require a premier/business account. As would be required if you have a lot of subscribers ...

Paypal works fine for transactions large and small.. i use it for business (side business) all the time I treat the account as my 'play money' one.. Kinda neat

We're not talking about how it works large vs small; we're talking how it works vs different account types with limits...

Heres a fun one, from the PayPal FAQ Entry " Which PayPal account type is right for me?": Personal accounts limit the number of credit or debit card funded payments received [qb]per year[/qb]. Credit or debit card funded payments are assessed a transaction fee. The fees for a personal account are quite differant... From the " Fees" FAQ entry: Personal Accounts 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/Business Accounts I wonder if they still require using their IPN or if they've opened things up a bit more since the last time I tried using their systems for website payments (outside of the paypal payment buttons)

Thanks for the info Gizmo - hadn't looked into the differences to be fair.
