Leave PayPal. Pay transparent fees with IC++.
PayPal takes up to 3.4% plus fixed costs on every transaction and can freeze your funds without warning. IC++ fees are transparent, settlement lands within 48h, and there are no surprises.

Why Businesses Are Leaving PayPal Behind
Fees Up to 60% Lower
PayPal charges 3.4% plus a fixed 0.35 EUR on every domestic transaction. With Daevon IC++, most EU cards start from 0.35% instead: at 100,000 EUR/month, that saves over 25,000 EUR a year.
No Sudden Fund Freezes
PayPal merchant accounts can be frozen without notice, locking up funds for months. Daevon settles funds to your IBAN within 48 hours instead, with no middlemen.
Native E-Invoicing
SDI e-invoicing isn't built into PayPal, so you need extra software and extra cost. Every Daevon invoice is generated and filed with the Revenue Agency automatically.
Real Support, Not a Chatbot
PayPal support stays automated and slow, often unreachable for serious issues. Every Daevon account gets a dedicated manager who speaks your language instead.
