Hi,

Anyone accepting PayPal? How is it going? Anything thing I would worry about?

TIA...

We've been accepting paypal for 1.5 years now and we have not had a single problem with them.

I would _not_ recommend paypal as your only source of accepting payments however because of certain international drawbacks as well as the fact that cards such as American Express are not accepted. I would highly recommend paypal as an additional payment option however.

We have had no problems accepting PayPal -- it is exceedingly unprofessional, in my opinion, to use PayPal as a primary payment collection method, but I am completely in favor of maintaining a business PayPal account to accomodate those customers that wish to pay with it.

We use it in addition to as well....for clients that request it.
No problems with it at all.:)

Hi,
PayPal is a great way to accept payments from those customers without a CC. We have had NO problems using them.

Thanks for the feedback.. I already accept visa,mc,amex but had some customers ask about paypal becuase they like to pay for things from their paypal balance.

There have been discussions around here on that.
You can try searching for them.
And, as long as I'm here, I'll say :agree:PayPal:agree:

A list of countries approved for PayPal use can be found here---

Thanks for the kind words:) We are working on expanding our international capabilites as quickly as possible.

I'm from holland and paypal works fine, already withdrawn moeny to my bank account.
When they introduced this option there were some strange things with the details for the bank account(needed strange numbers etc) but that's all sorted out now.

We originally started up using paypal and it worked fine. However, I believe it's essential to accept credit cards, mainly because paypal can be a little time consuming for a new user. If the client requests it, I see no reason to decline.

We've also been accepting PayPal in addition to our other payment options and so far, it's been great.

I will be accepting PayPal for those who wish to use it, but it will not be the main method for recieving credit card payments.
