What is PayPal?
PayPal is a free, secure online account that stores your credit card and bank details, enabling you to pay online quickly and safely.
 

 
All you need to do is add a debit, credit card or bank account details to your PayPal account, and you'll be able to pay for your items instantly without sharing any financial details with your seller.


If for any reason a refund is required, a seller can easily and quickly send a refund to the buyer directly into their PayPal account.


 
  • Your financial details aren't shared with the seller, so you can pay online with confidence
  • It's free for buyers
  • You can choose to pay by credit card, debit card or direct from your bank
  • Instant payment means you'll get your item faster than if you pay with a cheque
  • PayPal is integrated into eBay so you can pay in just a few clicks, saving you time
  • Your purchases may be protected up to £500, giving you peace of mind
