What is PayPal? PayPal is an account-based system that lets anyone with an email address securely send and receive online payments using their credit card or bank account. The basic concept is this; PayPal offers a secure service through which funds can be transferred from one PayPal account to another. Is PayPal secure? Yes. PayPal uses SSL technology to keep your information safe. In addition, when you send a payment using PayPal, the recipient won't receive sensitive financial information like your credit card or bank account number. This way, you don't have to worry about paying people you don't know. How do I use PayPal to send a payment? After you have signed up for a PayPal account, all you need to do is add your credit or debit card to your account, go to the "Send Money" tab, and enter the email address of the person to whom you are sending the payment, as well as the amount of the payment. You can also use your PayPal balance or your checking account to fund your payment. What is the difference between Personal, Premier, and Business accounts? Personal accounts are for individual use only, and include the core features. Premier and Business accounts are charged a modest fee to receive payments (3%+$.30), and include our premium features, such as the ability to accept credit card payments and the PayPal Shopping Cart. I live outside the U.S. Is PayPal available internationally? Yes. PayPal is currently available in 37 countries worldwide. |
