What is PayPal?

PayPal is like an online bank & if you have a PayPal account, you can send and receive money instantly from anyone by credit card or PayPal account.
  • If you are making money online, then most of the companies prefer to send your earnings in your PayPal account.
  • And if you have an online business & you want to sell your products online, then you can easily receive payment from your customers who want to pay by credit card or their PayPal account. Although there are other payment gatewaysas well but PayPal is most convenient & preferred way.
You can add your bank account in PayPal & you can transfer your earnings to your bank account in India. Within 2-3 days, you will receive payment in Indian currency in your bank account.

If you are going to use your father’s PAN card then make sure you use your father name while creating PayPal account. PayPal user account name and PAN Card name must be match. Please provide correct information while creating PayPal account.

There is no need of any type of debit or credit card to open PayPal account. You can add debit card or credit later after opening account, if you want to buy something online. But it’s not necessary if you only want to receive money that you have earned online.
