Hey!
I have a few questions about Paypal as far as security wise.
1.Is it safe for making online transactions?
Is it reliable? Paymentsā¦ etc
if you are a member with pay pal, have you came across any problems.
I am thinking of using paypall for my online store, but i need to know more information about it.
Thanks for any help in this matter.
its the best thing in the world. i use it. everyone uses it . such people for
music stores (tdcollins (dont know if i spelled it right haha))
web templates (mtechnik)
ebay (most sellers)
most sites accepting donations , (soon to be mine usin it:P)
there are so much wonderful things it can be used for and its 100% safe and perfect,
Paypal isnātā¦ exactly 100% safe. Go to www.paypalsucks.com for more info.
But most of the bad things said are just exaggerations. Overall, itās ok. As long as no one find out your password or some buyer suing you, you are good. =)
EDIT Itās alsoo got some kool features like the instant online transfer thingieā¦ where a buyer pays, and paypal can automatically execute your script, emailing the buyerās info and stuff. Itās pretty neat - I use that for an automated bookstore 
Iāve been using paypal for 5 years, never had 1 problem. Itās the best thing since sliced bread.
The only thing you need to be weary about is the sinister āDump bank account funds to Paypalā button that they place RIGHT NEXT to the āSend/Receive Paymentā button.
PayPal is about as reliable as Microsoft is known for making buggy operating systems.
Yes, try as hard as I may, PayPal will not take in toenail clippings in exchange for credit. Even if theyāre 12" long and able to kill small furry animals with one fell swoop.
if youāre worriedā¦just set up a second bank account and keep a low ballanceā¦if someone stole my whole $20ā¦i really wouldnāt be that upsetā¦
I love it manā¦ I even have a paypal card where I can go to any bank and withdraw funds
Actually ALL of my income from web work goes to my pay pal account. And they really donāt even charge me that much.
I have a paypal card tooā¦ 
Hey! Donāt rain on my parade, Iām the only one in who has a paypal card and thats final 
:lol: digital. How can paypal not charge you much? I receive a $500 payment, for example, and it takes away 20 dollars 
I ordered one, never got it, but they think they sent it to me. So now they send me like PI-thousand emails a day telling me to activate my non-existant card.
shakes fist
If it werenāt for the fees they take out of whatever money you get, paypal would be even better. Overall, I like paypal though
paypal is meant to be a way for everyone to take and make credit card payments, at less of a cost to you than a merchant account would be through your bank. Itās % is less per transaction than a merchant account. How are they supposed to make their money if they didnāt charge anything?
I have one of those paypal debit cards as well, itās so awesome. I use that to get stuff online instead of having to put in my bank card. I think itās āfront storeā attitude protects people more than it hurts. Unless youāre careless with your passwords and account info, thereās very little chance for you to have a problem.
I canāt be a stronger advocate of paypal. I sure wish I had gotten paid for all the people Iāve referred to them.
Ok but look at it like this:
Letās say I do work for a company outside the U.S. right, paypal makes it so convenient that Iāll gladly give them $20 for a $500 transfer.
Basically, I donāt have to wait for a check in the mail and I also donāt have to wait for that check to clear. So instead of having to wait at least a week to get my money, I can get it in seconds.
So I really donāt have a problem with them taking money. Also if you didnāt have a bank account you would have to pay a check cashing place anyway.
I hear ya though, it would be ace to have them take less but I think itās still well worth it. 
Iāve never actually used PayPalā¦ Gotta give it a try one of these days.
