Receiving money through PayPal is about as simple as convincing a cat to ignore a laser pointer—just send your email address linked to your PayPal account to the sender. Once they transfer the funds, you'll get a notification quicker than a roo on the hop. You can then either keep the money in your PayPal balance or transfer it to your linked Australian bank account. Beware of fees if you receive money for goods or services: PayPal takes a slice, typically around 2.6% + 30 cents per transaction.
In short, give your PayPal email, wait for the cha-ching, and then decide if it’s staying digital or heading to your bank. For more detailed steps and fee breakdowns, consulting PayPal’s official Australian site is highly recommended.
