Question About PayPal Fees and Paying a Writer...
27
Hey guys,
If I tell a writer that I would pay him X amount for an article, should I send him a couple extra cents so that he receives the exact amount I advertised after PayPal takes their fees?
Hypothetical example: If I were to pay someone $1 for "Goods/Services," in reality they would only receive around 67 cents (2.9% plus .30 cents in PayPal fees). Kind of messed up, I know.
If you were in my position as the employer, would you view this as your responsibility to ensure that the writer gets every single cent I advertised? Or would you simply say, "Oops, sorry. I'm keeping my end of the deal. Whatever happens in PayPal fees is beyond my control."
Perhaps the answer is completely up to the employer (me).....but what would you do, personally?
