PayPal Software Reviews

“Too many confusing steps”

Pros

It's useful when I need to pay for online orders.

Cons

There are way too many confusing clicks if you don't want to create an account. It also feels expensive and too invasive.

“Ability to pay everywhere”

Pros

Being able to pay at almost any store or website with it is really convenient and the security makes it feel very reliable.

Cons

Nothing to dislike about it.

“Simple setup for everyday payments”

Pros

Getting started with it and using it feels simple, whether it's for personal payments or business transactions.

Cons

International transfers can get expensive because the fees are quite high.

“Comes with solid benefits”

Pros

Easy to setup and receiving payments is pretty convenient. It also comes with some solid benefits which adds to the overall experience.

Cons

Something that really causes frustration is how often they seem to hold or block people's funds.

“Doesn't cost anything”

Pros

Paying for things online with it is really easy. The process is quick, transactions feel secure and the best part is that it doesn't cost anything to use.

Cons

Honestly I haven't run into any problems with PayPal. It's been an excellent service overall.

“Savings program is amazing”

Pros

Its simplicity really stands out and it has improved a lot over the years. The savings program is something I really appreciate.

Cons

At times transfers have taken more than two weeks to go through. It does seem like this has been getting better recently.

“Easily integrates with QuickBooks”

Pros

Creating invoices is simple and connecting it with other apps like QuickBooks was easy. The platform is also very user-friendly overall.

Cons

The layout for downloading a monthly report isn't very user-friendly and could be clearer.

“Top p2p payment app”

Pros

Moving money from my bank to another debit card is really convenient and honestly I haven't come across a better p2p payment app than PayPal. I'd pick this over Cash App any day because the service feels more reliable and the account security is much better. My money just feels safer here.

Cons

One thing that doesn't make much sense to me is not being able to add prepaid cards because if the card is prepaid but already has money on it, I don't see why that should be an issue. Customer service could also use some improvement.

“Sends money quickly”

Pros

Appreciate how quickly it lets you send money. Transfers happen in a short time which makes it very convenient.

Cons

It asks for an ID card during the process.

“Keeps my details hidden”

Pros

It makes it much simpler to send money to other people and I appreciate that it helps keep my personal details and identity protected.

Cons

There are times when fees come up, depending on the type of transfer or if currency conversion is involved.

“Easy to move money between accounts”

Pros

PayPal has been my go-to because it gives me a safe and secure way to pay for products and services. Moving money between accounts is also very convenient and doesn't take much effort.

Cons

The only downside that comes to mind is the extra fee you have to pay if you want to receive your money right away.

“Paypal handles it all”

Pros

From PayPal, I can take care of just about everything-send payments, get approved for loans and even manage a line of credit along with my business needs.

Cons

One thing that bothers me is the fee they charge when sending money for a business transaction compared with sending it to a friend or family member.

“Simple from the start”

Pros

Right away, it felt simple to use. The platform is simple to move around and sending invoices to clients while keeping everything organized in one place has been very convenient.

Cons

Honestly I have not run into any problems with it. I do not have any negative feedback to share and I have been very satisfied using it. Their customer service has also been excellent.

The part I liked least was how much time the setup process took.
