PayPal

All around the world, PayPal connects hundreds of millions of people sending and receiving billions of dollars.

To get started with PayPal, link your credit cards, debit cards and bank accounts to your PayPal account. Once they are securely linked, you won’t need to enter this information again. Now you can use PayPal online, in stores, or to send money to a friend. Helping people find better ways to pay, get paid and manage money is at the heart of everything we do.
