I used my credit card through Paypal and you charged me twice – what’s the deal?
A. If you look closely, you will see that you have not been charged twice. Plus, if you check your credit card statement you will only see a single charge for each application purchase. Here’s how it works: First, Paypal will transfer the purchase amount from your credit card to your Paypal account, which shows up as a “Transfer From Credit Card” with a positive dollar amount (like $1.99) added to your Paypal account. Then, they send the same amount to the developer you have purchased from, which shows up as a “Payment To” the developer’s paypal account – this amount is shown as a negative dollar amount (like -$1.99) from your Paypal account.
