Pay pal?

**StaceyS** · 12-01-2008, 06:22 PM

Hi!
I do Pinecone research surveys and they keep sending me notices saying that I could get paid via Pay Pal. Has anyone used this? I'd rather save the paper of the $3 checks if it really is more convienient.

I get my pinecone money by paypal. It comes within a day or two. I haven't had any issues with it.

I get mine in a check sent to me. I want my money to spend it where and when I want or to put it in my savings account. If you do a lot of online shopping, which I don't, then it may work better for you.

I get my pinecone money via paypal. It saves me the hassle of going to the bank, and I count it as "free money" so I use it to buy things online.

I also do Pinecone surveys and have not signed up for PayPal because I have a premier account and PayPal charges me fees on any payments I receive. I'd rather have the whole $3 than give $.50 to PayPal everytime I do a survey.

I use paypal all the time. I have a business account with them and it makes a lot of things easier to pay for.

I have a Primier account also and they have never charged me to receive a payment from Pinecone.

I wonder why. My fee structure is $.30 + 2.9% per transaction. Maybe Pinecone has a special arrangement?

That sounds like a payment structure for a vendor... Do you sell things and receive payment through PayPal?

I've always received payment via PayPal for Pinecone and I've never once been charged a fee for receiving that money.
I normally use it for a stray eBay purchase or to pay for postage when I sell a book on Half.com.
