PayPal Commerce Platform

Personal View on Paypal

Vorteile:

I love that I can get my money from abroad to my bank account. I find that the fees that they charge are super reasonable and that it has the best currency conversion.

Nachteile:

I just wish it had a tracking program especially when one is making an internal currency in a different currency. I also wish one had an option to create a quote before converting currencies.

Easy to use payment processor

Kommentare: After almost 3 years of using PayPal, it is still the only platform that I send invoices from outside of offline banking.

Vorteile:

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.

Nachteile:

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.

Very good experience

Kommentare: Very good experience overall, and will continue to use it

Vorteile:

Very diverse, can be used in a lot of different countries as well

Nachteile:

Sometimes when using all different platforms for payments its hard to keep track of all of them

Last Resort

Vorteile:

That I can send and receive money and have the ability to invoice customers.

Nachteile:

It can take a long time to process payments to my account, they charge fees and they are not known to be very secure.

PayPal's Commerce platform is a great business tool to use

Kommentare: Using PayPal Commerce Platform has overall been a pleasure and a joy, as you know that your transactions, data and funds are secure and accessible any time you need them. The quality of customer support is on a very high level and any major issues get resolved quickly.

Vorteile:

The commerce platform from PayPal is well made and straight forward. It is quick, somewhat simple and easy accessible. It provides all of the tools that you may need for business transactions and invoicing, receiving and sending of funds and reporting.

Nachteile:

Some of the functions lag from time to time, reload in the middle of the data entry process, but it is not an often occurrence. The platform does not have many glitches or major down sides, it will give you some headache from time to time but it is stable, safe and secure - and that is what matters.

Paypal is easy, secured for online transfers

Kommentare: Easy to transfer and accept money, at one click. I like that it gives timely updates on each step of the process to my email. Free transfer and paid transfer options are good depends on the urgency of the users. I prefer to use Free transfer.

Vorteile:

I use PayPal for online transfers. Easy sharing of information securely, and the transfer was hassle-free.

Nachteile:

The Paypal asked to change the account password, thought it was a good practice to keep the account secure. But no other accounts I use ask the times like Paypal to change the password.

PayPal a good option for businesses

Kommentare: PayPal is a great tool that can be used to help facilitate financial transactions in varied scenarios. It's more or less user friendly with the ability to send links for payments.

Vorteile:

- easy to send links to request money - options for multi currency selections - you can link PayPal to your bank account, option to link even more than 1.

Nachteile:

- searching for transactions could be improved - requires 2 factor authentication which can be hard if you travel internationally - high transaction fees

Nachteile:

Reports of sudden account freezes or fund holds without prior notice

Secure and user friendly payment gateway

Kommentare: Overall, a great payment gateway that is very secure and user friendly.

Vorteile:

Ease of use and security are two of the best features.

Nachteile:

Not having an extensive suite of tools as other dedicated e-commerce platforms.

Top payment processing platform

Loving paypal

Vorteile:

I love PayPal because their lot to do even making money online for PayPal cash

Nachteile:

Like the new updates one they update it

Secure

Vorteile:

I feel safer using PayPal for online purchases, especially if it's somewhere I will only order once from. I had an issue with a company recently that would not adjust an order, and PayPal refunded immediately. They always alert when a purchase has been made as well.

Nachteile:

I wish all online shops would allow to use PayPal for payment.

paypal

Vorteile:

paypal is a large trusted platform that everyone recognises

Nachteile:

have not found anything that I don't like yet

Useful for recurring billing

Kommentare: Easy and efficient way to manage your regular transactions.

Vorteile:

It’s a reliable tool for global business transactions.

Nachteile:

I have no issues so far. It’s a trustworthy platform. I have no complaints.

The best way getting paid immediately for a small business from family and friends!

Kommentare: I have been using paypal for over 4 years its for getting paid for side gigs and getting paid from friends, family and for working.

Vorteile:

Its very easy to use basic and works fast. I never have any issues using this app.

Nachteile:

Honestly I have no cons for this app Its fast and effective

Best For Small Businesses

Kommentare: This software is great for small businesses looking to receive payment locally and abroad. Overall, I would recommend it to anyone.

Vorteile:

I recommend this to those who're starting up because it makes receiving payments from new or existing clients easier. On my site, we only use PayPal to process money because it's available in most countries and opens up a wider customer base. The interface is simple and straight to the point, which I like. And copying code to your website is not a tedious task.

Nachteile:

I do not have any complaints whatsoever! I have been using the software for personal use for a long time (7+ years); the transition to business mode was easy and provided better features and usability.

Emulate PayPal and your customers will love you!

Kommentare: As a young company with typical issues of cost vs benefit, PayPal has been our partner as we grew from a little "mom and pop" business, to the largest worldwide manufacturer of sporting good products in a niche market. Years and years ago the "PayPal Verified" logo on our website was a big selling point for our products from our perspective and from the perspectives of our customers. The additional bells and whistles that PayPal offers to its clients is just as highly prized as that PayPal Verified logo was. The PayPal platform integrates almost seamlessly with our other e-systems. PayPal isn't manufacturing our niche sporting goods products, but they certainly know the business needs of their clients. A silly, simple example - the PayPal Virtual Terminal function - this enhancement that occurred a few years ago was like heaven. I shopped for credit card processing systems that would be a good fit for a small company. We tried a few different, highly respected banking institutions to process our credit card sales. Pre- PayPal our credit card processors made more money of electronic transactions than we made as the manufacturer of a product! Enter PayPal - Viola! We know exactly what credit card processing will cost us. We can budget accordingly and price our products at a reasonable level - no more ridiculous price increases just so we could accept credit cards. We have a webmaster now, and HE likes working with PayPal Commerce!

Vorteile:

We have used various iterations of PayPal since our first website almost 20 years ago. We were a small, young company with limited programming and commerce platform experience and expertise. PayPal customer support has been there every step of the way. Our growth and corporate expansion would not have been so dramatic were it not for PayPal technology and a truly committed, savvy workforce. All online "help" functions have been well written and easy to follow, and when our knowledge required more intensive help, PayPal personnel have been easy to reach, easy to understand. PayPal personnel follow up after integration of PayPal systems and they want to know how they can improve - their follow up has always been about serving us, not just reaching out to garner a useless 5-star review.

Nachteile:

I can't provide a meaningful area for improvement. I literally feel as though PayPal commerce anticipates my needs before I even know I need help. There have been instances where I thought, it would be so nice if I could do XXXX with this platform. I go to the help menu, and there is already a report format that does exactly what I had hoped for. And if the online help function isn't sufficient due to my lack of expertise, there is always a human literally only a phone call away. I cannot emphasize how grateful I am of this kind of support. I would happily pay twice the amount of my current fees, just to keep this support going - tho I don't want pricing to go up too much. PayPal is a HUGE bang for the buck!

PayPal is an excellent payment processo

Vorteile:

Online money transfers are made incredibly simple by PayPal. PayPal supports more than 13 different currencies, allowing us to send and receive money from anywhere in the world. Making a Paypal account is simple; all you need to do is register, just like when you sign up for a website. PayPal offers the option to link your bank account with your paypal account, allowing you to transfer funds from your paypal balance to your bank account. Money sent to us from other countries can be received immediately and without any delays. Simply providing our PayPal email address

Nachteile:

they tend to limit our accounts easily especially when a large sum of funds come through it which can become frustrating

Perfect.. with only 2 exceptions

Kommentare: I trust PayPal 100%: If I need help, they're there. I've been scammed by a shady merchant, and they've gotten my money back from them. I feel like they are making things easier for online business owners like me, because lord knows we have enough obstacles to deal with!

Vorteile:

What I love out about PayPal is that I can feel safe sending a new manufacturer money, knowing that they will protect me if something goes wrong, which it has. They have FANTASTIC customer care and just about everything I need as an online business owner, and I feel comfortable using every feature, which I did not feel using other commerce platforms in the past. PayPal has become my go to place for purchasing samples, inventory, invoicing, payment processing, rebates, and just about everything e-com related.

Nachteile:

There are only two things I would say are inconvenient about using PayPal for my commerce: 1.) It's kind of a pain when you have to change an address. You have to go through several different tabs and change everything manually, as well as each and every business card, however, it could just be that I am not aware of a faster way. 2.) Using it on my sales funnels forces the buyer to login with each upsell. I have one funnel that has 3 different one time offers, and if they choose to do all 3, they would have to log in 4 times. This could also be due to the sales funnel platform though, so it may not specifically just be PayPal.

Good payment processor

Kommentare: Undoubtedly my experience has been good, except for a limitation of my account due to the negligence of a buyer of my company's products. I love using PayPal because it allows me to associate the account in e-commerce service platforms, this makes it easier for consumers to make a payment. At the business level, having this platform is essential.

Vorteile:

I really love this platform for fast and secure payment processing. I like it a lot because you can add bank accounts to withdraw money or send to other users, in addition to credit or debit cards, this makes payments easier. International shipments can be sent at an attractive exchange rate between currencies. This platform is used to pay for services automatically and keep accounts up to date, and has good security to protect both the seller and the buyer of the products.

Nachteile:

I think the commissions are a bit high, especially when shipping internationally. Sometimes payments are withheld as a security measure, this can certainly affect the performance of a secure transaction as it can slow down the process. Account blocks or limitations can be seen very frequently.

PayPal- The Payment Platform

Kommentare: My experience with PayPal was great until they started holding my money every week, and each hold lasts 21days unless the client confirms receipt. If that would be sorted out, I would be fine.

Vorteile:

It allows us to make and receive payments in different currencies and is flexible in terms of making payments to multiple recipients. This has made it possible to transact with clients from different parts of the world. Reconciliation is easy as the platform provides a detailed report and transaction history. Integration with other e-commerce tools is a big plus.

Nachteile:

Whereas the platform helps manage risks associated with fraud, having to be on the receiving end of that isn’t fun at all. Lately, I have had every payment held for 21days simply because it's a virtual product, and customer support hasn’t been helpful at all. I have provided all that they’ve requested to sort out the mess but still no progress. My clients make payments and still have to go back into the account after 48hours to confirm receipt, that’s too much hustle. I’m actually considering other alternatives as it is right now.

Seamless Online Integration

Kommentare: Our experience has been positive from the start. During the setup phase the PayPal support team were always on hand, and never seemed to rush through any of the steps. They constantly upgrade in the background, and add useful features that make working it easier in the long run. The platform also delivers on every promise and integrates across all online applications where we use it.

Vorteile:

Firstly, PayPal is synonymous with integrity, security and ease-of-mind online transacting. This software therefore offers our customers a stability that reflects well on our own company. The features for the backend user are multiple, and PayPal has really thought about any and every eventuality.

Nachteile:

Initially the backend takes time to get used to, and to place that framework within your own workflow. But once the backend is understood, management becomes really easy. Much of it is not intuitive if one does not have some accounting background, but even so, any user can familiarize themselves quickly.

Terrible customer support

Vorteile:

Used by a lot of people. Easy to integrate to my online store

Nachteile:

They limited my account which has literally paused my business activity. The reason for it? No proof of address. I have given them the bills, utility statements, government documents, even the tenancy agreement and a letter from the owner showcasing the proof of address and yet still they fail to accept it and give me an accurate reason why. Stupid! Not to mention they LOST 500USD of my money and blamed it on my bank. I went to the bank and talked to the branch manager in which we concluded the money has not gone in. PAYPAL failed to provide enough evidence showcasing that they even started the transaction. Every time I bring it up they tell me that it is my bank's fault - same response each time. I will be moving to STRIPE purely because PAYAL customer service is terrible. I want my money removed from PAYAL as soon as possible - if they will even let me. If you value your money and information DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT go with PAYPAL. They are almost a scam.

Can't operate without it!

Vorteile:

I like the fact it is from PayPal! I've trusted the company since it began! I have one of their beginning account badges, and have not regretted it once. I use or have used several of their products and platforms and IF ever there was a problem, the customer support is outstanding and always delivers!

Nachteile:

I have no complaints about it. Its informative and well designed!
