Paypal is deservedly a leader among financial Internet providers, one of the first to provide customers with the ability to make payments via e-mail or mobile phones connected to the network. More than one hundred million users around the world appreciated the capabilities of this system, guaranteeing the complete safety of funds in accounts and transaction security.
Paypal in Russia began its activities in 2006. Unfortunately, not all company services are available to our fellow citizens, but the quality of service and its prevalence at online auctions attract many buyers who work with foreign suppliers.
Why is Paypal needed in Russia? First of all, to pay for goods and services, including at the famous eBay auction. Personal user account insurance makes sending a payment as secure as possible, and a request for it gives you the right to send letters to debtors.
Registration on the Paypal website in Russia is free, a user account with a domestic IP appears in Russian. For another choice, a button is located in the upper right corner. When filling out the questionnaire, you must provide reliable data, otherwise the account may be blocked. The registration procedure itself is quite simple, after filling out all the fields, you need to click on the link of the sent letter to the website and enter the credit card details. The account balance always shows zeros, since payments by citizens of the CIS countries are made directly from the card.
Recently, the company's attitude towards Russian customers has softened somewhat, and users can accept payments without withdrawing them from the system and using them for further payment. Withdrawal of Paypal in Russia is only possible to an account with a US bank. Technically, this can be done by issuing a card in the American Payoneer system. This service operates in Russian, the design of the card itself takes no more than a month. US corporations allow you to transfer funds to the system account, and then you can dispose of them at your discretion.
Prepaid cards for using Paypal in Russia are sold through instant service terminals or other available methods. If you do not want to trust the system with your card data, you can use this. However, there is no guarantee that the security service will skip the payment without the user's personal data and you will not lose your account.
Despite a number of restrictions for Paypal customers in Russia, it is still possible to accept payments, in addition, the system automatically converts the currency at the company's internal rate. To pay for hosting services or make purchases in online stores that cooperate with Paypal, this well-protected service fits perfectly. Due to the existence of a problem-solving center on the site, any client can clarify a controversial situation or file a claim with an unscrupulous seller.
Before you start using the services of the service, you must carefully read the user agreement and not violate its requirements, otherwise your account will be blocked.
