Transaction Fee when using PayPal

[YukoY]

Hi. I'm still new at Shopify so any help is greatly appreciated. 

When someone purchased $10 e-gift voucher and paid thru PayPal, it said on PayPal site that the fee was $0.84. 

My Shopify Payments are activated. So on Shopify, it says PayPal transaction fee is $0. But is there any fee from Shopify? Or does PayPal charge 8.4% on every transaction?

Hey @YukoY!, good question.

It's important to know that Shopify Payments and PayPal are two separate payment gateways but you can have them both active in your store checkout. When a customer selects PayPal as their payment option you are not charged any transaction fee from Shopify Payments. Instead the transaction fee is charged by PayPal.

You can learn more about how PayPal fees work with Shopify Payments, in this article!

If you have any additional questions, please let me know.
