Does Anyone Use PayPal Micro-Payments?

1 replies
I've been aware of Paypal's micro-payment system for some time, and interested in taking advantage of it, but I'm having a hard time finding out more information about it.

For those that don't know, it has a reduced commission level for payments under $12, something on the order of 5% + $.05 vs. their regular 2.9% + $.30. It was designed mostly for gamers to buy credits but has the advantage of lower costs for inexpensive digital products also.

Paypal has very few details about it on their site and as usual, my emails have gone unanswered. I found one blog that says you must open a separate business account and then convert it to the micro-payment platform after approval.

With so little information on the PP site about it, I'd hate like hell to open another account only to find that I couldn't convert it. Does anyone use this platform that could give me some advice and your experience with it?
