IIRC, there is a minimum $.35 charge to process a transaction typically. So, simple math says that they would lose 34 cents from someone paying 1 cent.
Not illegal. Just not something I would call fair. At least paying $1 would cover their expenses, considering that they have to run a server and such as well.
