yes, that is what i mean, because inflation is so high and most currency vs dollar is weaker

Paypal fees and charges will eat up whatever gain you get from currency exchange.

@nawala123 yes but they charge when you convert back to your local currency, you could also check if when converting from paypal usd to your local currency if it's the current and true exchange rate, I think it's lower.

i dont think so, i have count the fee. moreover, when we withdraw more than 100 dollar is free of charge, paypal just take 2-3 per dollar when we withdraw to local bank, and it is much worth than bank interest or inflation

@nawala123 Then, would it not be better to put the money in the bank and get a bit of interest?

@1hopefulman We have to count the inflation and currency volatility

I do keep my money in my paypal not because of appreciation of US currency but there is a charge unless I could withdraw and convert the amount of a minimum of $200 which they will not charge me anything.

It may be interesting to pay something in USD to avoid PayPal exchange rate. I paid a Skype subscription like this during years. I do not think that keeping USD for the long term has any interest.

@nawala123 Not really. If you pay in another currency PayPal takes an exchange rate that they recently raised to you, and the receiver pays also a fee : they earn on both sides.
