PayPal Exempts Large Retailers From Fee Hike

PayPal is raising fees by up to 32 percent by eliminating volume discounts for larger sellers, and EcommerceBytes has confirmed that certain companies are exempt from the fee hike, which the payments company is referring to as a fee "simplification." PayPal spokesperson Anuj Nayar told EcommerceBytes, "We are only changing the rate structure for merchants on the volume discounted merchant rate. We are not changing the rate structure for other groups."
