It's safer
Your safety is our priority. That's why a team of anti-fraud specialists monitor transactions 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. All sensitive information sent between your computer and our servers is automatically encrypted so it's not exposed to potential fraudsters. Wherever you shop with PayPal, your financial information is never shared with who you're buying from.

It's easier
With PayPal, you don't enter the long numbers on your credit or debit card every time you want to pay for something online. All you enter is your email address and password so not only is it easier, it's quicker too. This means PayPal is perfect for shopping on your mobile. You can even send money and check your account on your mobile too.

It's free
Creating a PayPal account is free. And buying with PayPal is also free when you're shopping domestically. The seller pays a small fee for us to securely process a payment and there are charges when you shop internationally.

It's global
You can use PayPal in 190 countries and 24 different currencies at millions of websites around the world. As a global company with over 10 years experience in online payments, we know how to make shopping online a pleasure.
