How do you set up your Paypal standard payment account to accept payments from all over the world? HNLV 10-13-2008, 04:14 PM By paypal standard I assume you mean "Premier/Business" accounts... 1) Yes, once they are on paypal page, users get an option to log in to their paypal account on the right or pay via credit card on the left. 2) To accept payments from all over the world, go to My Account -> Profile -> Payment Receiving Preferences and on that page make sure of 2 things. Under "Block payments sent to me in a currency I do not hold:" choose "No, accept them and convert them to U.S. Dollars" and... Under "Block payments from users who:" make sure you UNcheck "Have non-U.S. PayPal accounts" DephNet[Paul] 10-13-2008, 04:34 PM Yes, PayPal does allow you to accept credit/debit card payments from clients with no PayPal account. In the process they will set a PayPal account up. You would need to have a Business account as Personal Accounts will only let you have 3 transactions funded by a credit card. I hope this helps Paul GCM 10-13-2008, 05:43 PM Yes, you can accept payments via PayPal without requiring your clients to sign up for a PayPal account. As for your question about accepting different currency's I'm not sure. All the best, deepman007 10-13-2008, 05:50 PM Thank you all for replying back. If I wholesale to retailers, how would I accept their payment with out going through the website using paypal standard payment and the buyer doesn't have an paypal account ? GCM 10-13-2008, 05:57 PM They would have to go through PayPal's website to process the transaction. THe buyer doesn't need to sign up for a PayPal account to use it. They simply enter their credit card and info and their set. If you want to process the payment on you're own site I would get PayPal's Website Payments Pro. It going to cost you $30 a month. I would suggest you sign up for a merchant account via Authorize.net or CDG Commerce. It's going to cost you though. You'll also need an SSl if you do it either the PayPal Payments Pro, Authorize.net, and CDG Commerce. As with PayPal Standard the payment is processed on their site, which has an SSL. All the best, deepman007 10-13-2008, 06:34 PM How do I accept their payment without going through my website for wholesaling? I just give them my paypal e-mail address? GCM 10-13-2008, 06:42 PM Yes, you could just give them your email or phone number to transfer the funds from their account to yours.
