Information about accepting credit cards with PayPal
PayPal
- a service which allows people to send and receive
money safely and securely. It allows you and your
customers to exchange money through a neutral source.
You simply open a PayPal account (for free), and place
"buy me" buttons on your web site. You customize each
button to contain the product cost and shipping charges.
After a successful sale, you will receive an email
to notify you that you have received an order and
the funds have been deposited into your PayPal account.
Next you can fulfill the customers order. Once the
order has been shipped, you can mark the order as
shipped an an email will be deliver to your customer
to let them know that their product is on the way.
Once you are ready to remove funds from your PayPal
account you can deposit money into your bank account.
It only takes a couple of days if you do a transfer
or you can use the PayPal debit card (recommended)
so that you can have access to your money immediately.
You can also request that a check be mailed to you.
