PayPal tips and tricks
A merchant account is not for every online seller to run his web store (it mostly depends on the scale of your business – most individual online entrepreneurs are more than happy with PayPal services).
I have been using PayPal for years and was happy with their service all this time. Yes, PayPal had some issues 5 or so years back, but they have resolved them.
I was always interested to get some extra features that were not available in their ‘Help’ section:
- give my customers discounts
- sell gift certificates
- provide shipping options
- paypal coupons
I know of O’Reilly’s ‘PayPal Hacks’ manual and this forum
One more way to find PayPal solutions is PayPal Help website – one page with a selection of tips and tricks that will help you to extend the limits of PayPal as a payment solution for your online business.
Summary: now everyone talks of GBuy and how it will take away PayPal customers. But PayPal was the first company who paved the way to this sort of services for small and middle online businesses. I am sure it will help them to stay in the game. Google is a great company, but it tries to be everything and everywhere online.
