Personal to personal seems not to be affected, but if either end is a business account, nope

That seems like it will effectively finish PayPal as an international payment service, what gives?

I moonlight some doodles from time to time so that sucks, but also have some
graphic design friends whose clientele are primarily US based. This is gonna be horrible for em. Source, @ergopower?

https://www.ecommercebytes.com/C/abblog/blog.pl?/pl/2022/8/1660400459.html They are trying to stop Friends/Family transactions to being sent to Business Accounts to avoid paying the PP fee. Personal Transactions in PP Lingo is what Friends/Family is going to be called now.

Ahhh so you can still purchase from businesses outside of your country, you just can't send it as "personal", it has to be a "business" transaction. That makes way more sense! PayPal still sucks though.

This was in a 'Policy Update' email yesterday, I assume all PayPal account holders will get this

@ergopower perhaps those emails were sent solely to US based accounts. Only have transaction records in my email, not in spam either.

Starting November 15, the same policy update will apply to Canada (email received August 14).

ugh.

We've never had F&F (personal) in Taiwan, so makes no difference here.
