Its offerings include payments with PayPal balance, credit and debit cards, and payments linked to bank accounts, all via mobile or desktop.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Founded in 1998 as Confinity, it adopted the name PayPal in 2001. Today, it is a global reference for digital payments, present in over 200 countries and regions and supporting more than 25 currencies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For many online merchants, <\/span><b>accepting PayPal is key to selling internationally<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and increasing buyer trust during checkout. Now, we will explain you all you need to know about this payment method.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_PayPal_payments_work\"><\/span><b>How PayPal payments work?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PayPal works by linking the user\u2019s account to a funding source. These sources can be:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Bank account:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> the amount is charged directly from the user\u2019s bank account.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Credit or debit card:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> ideal for international purchases or fast transactions.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>PayPal balance:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> functions as a digital wallet within the platform.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When the customer makes a payment, they authorize the transaction from their PayPal account, without sharing banking or card details with the merchant. This allows PayPal to act as an intermediary, enhancing security, reducing friction, and improving the shopping experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>PayPal payments in ecommerce<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PayPal, designed specifically for online payments, simplifies the checkout process in digital stores, offering a fast, secure, and frictionless experience.
