Use of PayPal to Create a Shopping Cart Easily, Quickly and Free

As I announced a few days ago PayPal is now alive and kicking in South Africa.. While it has been possible to buy using PayPal for a number of years it was not possible to collect money using PayPal until Friday last week.

You Must Have a Personal FNB Account

There is an important requirement and that is the person wanting to receive money must have an FNB account.

If you have an FNB account all you have to do is login to your PERSONAL FNB account (does not work with company accounts) and click the “Transfers” tab top left and then follow the PayPal link.

Before you do this you need to go to PayPal and set up an account. This process is also quite painless.

Ring FNB and they will guide you through the process if necessary.

Test it out by going through the process… you can leave the final payment part out (ie unless you do want to buy). You will see it is a very slick and smooth checkout process.

At this stage prices can only be displayed in US Dollars since PayPal cannot yet accept Rands as payment. However PayPal will convert the US$ amount to the Rand equivalent at checkout so you know exactly what amount will be charged to your account.

Quite simply there is no easier way to start selling online… get your account today. You can get an account even if you don’t bank with FNB… you can still use the account to buy BUT not to sell. To sell you must have an FNB account.

In addition to being able to use PayPal to set up shop it can be used to transfer money from account to account wherever the account is and whoever the account is owned by. This can be done on simple email instructions.

1. PayPal will revolutionize ecommerce in South Africa… get on board NOW…
2. It will also put a number of existing ecommerce providers, payment gateways and shopping cart merchants in South Africa under pressure to reduce prices and improve performance and ease of use.
3. Spread this message send a copy of this email to all your contacts who might have an interest in using PayPal to either sell online cheaply or just to transfer funds internationally.
