Anyone with a UB and Paypal account...

David04 · #1 11-05-2004, 11:16 PM

I want to purchase PokerTracker. Unfortunately, I don't have a Neteller account or a credit card. So I was wondering(I won't need this until like next month at least) if I could send someone $60 on UB($55 for PokerTRacker +$5 for helping me out) and they would send me $55 on Paypal so I could purchase PokerTracker through PayPal....let me know if anyone can help me.

They'll need to send you about $57 after PayPal takes out 2-3% in fees so you end up with $55.

Oh okay, then I will send them $70 or so and then they can transfer me enough so that I will have enough to buy PokerTracker(exactly how much does PayPal charge for each transfer? 2 or 3%??)

It all depends on how much money you accept in a month. For business accounts it's 1.9%-2.2% + 0.30 per transaction. For smaller accounts it's 2.9% + 0.30.

Even if they get charged 2.9% + 0.30 you would only need to send $57 as they would clear $55.05 after the fees.

So I would send them $70, and they would recieve $67.37. Then they transfer me like $58, and I recieve $56 approx.?

you only get charged a fee when money is sent between 2 PAYPAL accounts

Oh duh obviously, for some reason I was thinking I would send them money from MY PayPal account....which woulda kinda defeat the purpose [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Can anyone help me out here?

Email pat at pokertracker and ask him if he has a UB account. I would guess that you could transfer to him direct.

Unless i'm mistaken, Paypal only charges you a fee for accepting a payment if you have a business account, which is only needed to accept credit card payments. So, unless you hav a business account (which I would doubt, because, if you had one, you'd probably have money in it already), you don't need to worry about fees.
