If you have a business...

...that only makes money through paypal payments, how do you pay taxes on that? do you just simply keep track of how much you got paypal'd and report it as miscellaneous income?

I put it down in Quick Books as coming from the company that sent me the money. I also record the transaction number and fees given to PayPal.

You only pay a fee if you receive money, which I think is 2-3%.

Using only paypal for something like that is a mistake. They are know for freezing accounts, and holding the money. Be careful.

just keep track of everything. I'm sure if you did volume with paypal they have year end stats or papers that have everything also.

Yes, paypal is good for small amount but for big amounts I would not trust them. When I say big I mean $5000 dollars plus
