Boy, I agree, it is a very convenient way to pay for things and I now see how many potential bidders might be turned off by eBay sellers who don't accept this means of payment. However, I've been a little confused as to how to enact Paypal as a means to accept payment for auctions, so I have procrastinated. Is it a simple process to activate? Dead simple. You get a debit card, so you can use the card to pay for purchases. You can use the card to pay for anything since it's like any other Master Card except that it is limited to your balance in PayPal. I'm allowing the balance to accumulate because I'll use it to pay for Christmas presents. It can be used anywhere a Master Card is accepted. You can also earn interest on the balance and earn rebates on what you charge with the card. Considering the interest and the rebates, you can offset the fees you pay for accepting PayPal. Of course you can also request amounts paid into your PayPal account transferred to your checking account. This sounds more like what I want. I don't think I want a debit card. I already pay for eBay items with a few PayPal clicks online. Are there several options to be aware of? Yep. Check off money market and cash back. What's that do for me? The first pays you interest on any balance you have in your PayPal. The second pays you a small amount when you use the account to purchase something. Now, my PayPal payments are simply deducted from my checking account. If I sign up to accept PayPal payments, would they automatically be deposited in that same account? Nope. You have to request disbursement or use the credit card. There's a limit on disbursement amounts, but you can sweep the account frequently. Does that mean I can't zero out my PayPal account after receiving a payment? I have to leave some minimum amount in there? I don't plan to use it very often. "Sweeping" is taking it all out after every transaction. There's a max withdrawal amount per month of $500 until you verify your account. Then no max amount. I forget what is required to verify the account. It's been awhile. No big thing, though. -- Tony Cooper Orlando, FL |

I need a real incentive to stand in line behind people who are practicing their Conversational English at the post office to buy a money order. When I do a search for a coin or other item and get multiple results one of the first things I do is close the auctions that don't take either PayPal or BidPay. I understand that sellers are trying to cut costs, but they are shooting themselves in the foot by doing so. BTW, I probably pay using BidPay about twice a year, always having to look up my account info. BidPay takes a few extra steps when paying, but it is still free for the buyer. I'm not sure how it works out for the seller in fees. I actually had a BidPay account before getting PayPal. And the only reason I signed up with PayPal initially was for the $10 credit they were giving to each new subscriber. Someone at PayPal knew how to get business. |
