Easy to use

PayPal Credit

5
It is an excellent and easy to use credit compared to the rest when shopping online. Reviewed on: 9th July 2022

Reliable, simple and effective

5
PayPal is my go-to method of payment, especially given how reliable, simple and effective is to use. Useful stats are provided, together with offers, and it allows me to monitor and track payments. The 0% PayPal Credit Option has proved its worth when funds are low. Reviewed on: 9th July 2022

Convenient, easy and a expanding provider

5
Digital payment is moving forward that it is only a matter of time that PAYPAL will be able to use instore like how the Asian Market is of Gcash & Paymaya (Philippines). In the America's & Europe it is already well known, yet there is an untouched market in Asia's market. It just need to be more readily available for foreigners coming to the continent and PayPal is there for their convenience. Time will tell for locals to get into the train and spread it over the continent. Reviewed on: 9th July 2022

Fantastic service provider

5
I have used pay pal in the past for small purchases and recently coming up to an anniversary with the rate of everything going up there was not anyway possible I could purchase the gift I wanted for my husband. However, my colleague suggested that I go into my PayPal account and see if I could apply for a loan to spread out the parents. I have a great credit rating and I knew the payments were easy to be paid every month and with 0% interest it was simply fantastic. I purchased the gift picked it up from a store in Glasgow, my husband could not believe that I managed to get him the gift that he had been looking at for a long time. Its easy affordable payments and I couldn't thank PayPal enough for making the process easy to follow, instructions are clear and the purchase was approved within 5 mins. So thanks again paypal, I have recommend this to loads of my NHS friends and work colleagues as we don't get a pay rise like everyone else and we certainly wouldn't strike as we care for our patients to much. This helped me out greatly this year!! Reviewed on: 9th July 2022
