What is Paypal?

Created by Kayla McDonald, Modified on Tue, 8 Oct at 4:09 PM by Kayla McDonald

PayPal is a safe and easy way to pay for things online without having to type in your credit card or bank details every time. Here’s how it works in simple terms:


1.Create an account: You sign up for a PayPal account FREE by using your email address and link it to your bank account, debit card, or credit card.

   

2.Paying for things: When you want to buy something online, you can choose PayPal as your payment option. Instead of giving the website your card information, youlog in to PayPal and it handles the payment for you.


3.Why it’s safe: PayPal doesn’t share your bank or card details with the store. It acts like a middleman that protects your information.


4. Sending money: You can also use PayPal to send money to people by entering their email address.
