I enjoy that knowing my earned money is well protected and easily accessible.it integrates very well with many survey sites and I find that there are always another survey site signing up with PayPal. The platform is very easy to navigate. > > **Cons**: Some of the cons of PayPal is while it's free to use, if you are sending money as a transaction there is a fee. if you want instant access to your money they charge you 1% in bank transfers, they do have a reputation for being aggressive if they feel the need to freeze your account, you have a fight on your hand to prove that you are in the right when it comes to your money. > > I have been using the PayPal platform for two years and I have not had any problems accessing my earned money, I do have to say I understand the 1% on the transfer of money because like any business they too have to make money. I have enjoyed my time with this platform and will continue to use it. ----- ### "Easy to use payment processor" — 5.0/5 > **Adam** | *May 11, 2024* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: I think their best feat would be the ease of initially setting up the account and sending invoices, their customer service is top-notch. When I had emergencies I was able to get hold of them even during weekends. > > **Cons**: The only con that made me reconsider using the Paypal Commerce Platform was the transaction holdups at the beginning and the source of funds verification that I needed to provide to their customer service to be able to unfreeze the transactions. This was prominent in the beginning of implementing this solution. > > After almost 3 years of using PayPal, it is still the only platform that I send invoices from outside of offline banking. ----- ### "A highly recommended eCommerce Solution for Marketplaces and platforms" — 3.0/5 > **Jibin** | *September 9, 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: It supports various brands and business with innovative solutions, that helps them to expand there business and reach more audience.

It is highly intuitive, has good support and community help modules, and has been very responsive when i had problems. I also really appreciate the below-market rate for nonprofit donation processing. > > **Cons**: One feature that would be helpful for a non-profit is having the ability for the donor to pay the processing fees. Other donor software allows tis and it helps to cover costs for small organizations. One other concern is that some of my potential donors chose not to donate because they were unhappy with PayPal's socio-political activism and would not support using this product. When numerous donors tell em this, i need to look for other options. > > PayPal has been very helpful in setting up payment processing and integrating it with my website. Reporting and payouts are simple and easy. This product is just incredibly helpful. ----- Page: 1 / 21\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/147511/paypal-checkout?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/147511/paypal-checkout) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
