PayPal

What is PayPal and how does it work?

PayPal is a safer, simpler way to send and receive money online.

You can pay for items you buy on eBay as well as on hundreds of other leading retail websites, or you can use PayPal to send money quickly and safely to anyone with an email address.

You can pay with money held in your PayPal account balance or use another payment method such as a credit card, debit card or your bank account.

Once you sign up for a PayPal account, you just need to select PayPal as your payment method when you shop online. Websites that accept PayPal will show the PayPal logo in their checkout. You will be asked to log in to your account with your email address and password to confirm the payment. PayPal never shares your financial information with sellers or retailers.

If you receive a payment through PayPal, you will receive an email notification and the money will be credited to your PayPal account. You can then use your PayPal balance to make payments, or you can withdraw the funds to your bank account.

It’s free to sign up for a PayPal account.

What type of credit or debit cards can I use with PayPal?

PayPal accepts the following cards:

- Visa / Delta / Electron

- Mastercard / Eurocard

- PayPal Credit Card

- PayPal Top Up Card

- Switch / Maestro

- Solo

- American Express

Debit cards (also known as echeque cards or bank cards) are accepted if they have a Via or MasterCard logo.

PayPal does not recommend adding a gift card, prepaid card, virtual card or one-time-use credit card to your PayPal account. Although some of these cards may be accepted, generally they do not provide users with access to the card statement. For this reason, they could not be used to complete PayPal’s card verification process should this be necessary. A traditional credit card or debit card is therefore preferable.
