PayPal Software Reviews

“safer worldwide money transfers”

Pros

Being able to send and receive money from anywhere in the world is really useful and it also feels more secure.

Cons

One thing that bothers me about it is how long refunds can take after I send money to someone and then get it refunded.

“helpful for our patients”

Pros

Getting it up and running was simple and using it has been just as simple which makes it especially helpful for our patients.

Cons

There have been a few small problems with shipping addresses and that has led to extra customer service work to correct orders that were already completed.

“Paypal is vital for my business”

Pros

Most of my business transactions go through PayPal and it has become a very important part of how I run my business. It's very simple to use and plays a vital role in my day-to-day operations.

Cons

reporting should be improved especially when it comes to preparing end-of-year tax documents.

“Useful for paying for recurring subscriptions”

Pros

Payments come through quickly and I can transfer the money to my bank whenever I need it. It's also really convenient for paying for small online purchases or recurring subscriptions.

Cons

The only downside is the fees which can get a little expensive depending on where the payment is coming from but I usually account for that when setting my prices.

“Recommended”

Pros

Payments and processing are incredibly fast. Purchases are protected and if something goes wrong, there is legal security as well.

Cons

I'm honestly completely satisfied with it overall so I would definitely recommend it.

“fast payments almost anywhere”

Pros

Using it in most places has been no problem at all and sending money is done in just a few seconds. Paying with it also feels safer than sharing your credit card details directly.

Cons

The occasional random checks and account limits can be annoying and the fees for different currencies or business features tend to build up before you really notice them.

“Expense tracking done right”

Pros

Handling payments has become much more convenient and it lets me keep track of all my expenses in one place which used to be really difficult otherwise.

Cons

There is nothing major to dislike but at times it asks me to log in again and again on the same device and that can get irritating.

“Paypal fits all my needs”

Pros

It has let me shop online and send money to my relatives while paying lower fees. I'm really happy with it because it covers everything I need.

Cons

That said, the card payment charges and cash withdrawal fees are a downside and the dashboard doesn't show expenses clearly. Other than that, PayPal is a wonderful platform.

“ability to connect several bank cards”

Pros

Being able to connect several bank cards in one place with PayPal comes at no extra cost which is really convenient. Every time I've used it, it has worked perfectly for fast payments.

Cons

The fees generally seem reasonable and the dispute team feels like a small rescue squad whenever I run into refund problems.

“More trustworthy than other services”

Pros

When it comes to online transactions, I trust it more than any other service. It's very simple to use and it consistently feels safe and dependable.

Cons

website interface could benefit from some updates. Its fees are also higher than Stripe and Square but I still choose it because of how reliable it is.

“Useful for international transfers”

Pros

Being able to apply for a credit card and then use PayPal to send money abroad, not just within the country, is definitely a useful feature.

Cons

The fees are extremely high and because of that I would not use the credit card again. On top of that, the frequent security checks feel excessive and become really annoying.

“Superb pay-shop option”

Pros

Sending money to friends or using the pay-shop option only takes a couple of clicks even when the store charges in a different currency and I'm paying in my own.

Cons

Refunds can take a while to show up, the fees add up when converting between currencies and the app sometimes lags or doesn't refresh the updated balance right away.

“Send money quickly with paypal”

Pros

Paying online or sending money quickly works really well with this and I also use it to receive payments. Linking a bank account was simple and it makes it simple to track what is coming in and going out.

Cons

fees can get pretty high when you receive a lot of payments. It is also frustrating to reach support if the account gets blocked and the response time is not very fast.

“Disappointed!”

Pros

It doesn't protect you completely and you could end up losing a significant amount of money. Very disappointing.

Cons

It doesn't fully protect you and you risk losing large sums of money.

“receiving payments made effortless”

Pros

Receiving money and sending payments with PayPal feels really simple and convenient.

Cons

I honestly can't think of any downsides with PayPal.

“Just send the link”

Pros

Sending a payment link is all it takes and that's it. It helps me look a bit more professional without having to deal with cash or bank transfers all the time.

Cons

The fees feel a little high when you receive payments frequently and the dashboard isn't especially clear for small businesses like mine. Even so, it's still very practical.

“Solid support”

Pros

It has been my go-to for secure online payments and it makes the whole process feel really convenient. I've also used the Pay in 4 option several times and it's been very useful. On top of that, their support team has been really solid, I had a payment issue once and they were amazing in helping me sort it out.

Cons

At the moment, I honestly don't have any negatives to mention about PayPal. I've been very pleased with the software overall, as well as the support I've received.

“handles payments securely”

Pros

Handling payments feels secure and simple. Connecting bank accounts and different credit cards doesn't take much effort and getting paid as a 1099 employee is simple and convenient.

Cons

having to go through MFA constantly can get frustrating. Even when I select "remember this device," it still asks me to verify again. I understand that's probably the trade-off for better security when payments and accounts are involved but it can still be annoying.

“Love the pay later option”

Pros

Having the pay later option split into 4 payments is really helpful and I also appreciate the points you can earn on certain purchases.

Cons

Every now and then, when I choose the pay-in-4 option, it ends up charging the full amount instead without any warning. That's really frustrating when you're expecting to pay one way and then get charged another.

“Awesome for online purchases”

Pros

It lets me shop online without having to use any of my other credit cards or bank accounts which is something I really appreciate.

Cons

Not every online store accepts it and the fees can get pretty high especially for overseas purchases.
