PayPal helps remove the complexities of paying for things
However, when it comes to paying online, long customer forms to fill out, small screens and security concerns can sometimes cause unnecessary stress in already busy lives.
Whether you’re buying yet more nappies, paying for that much-needed takeaway, or it’s the middle of the night and you’re choosing another cute sleepsuit for your new bundle of joy, PayPal helps remove the complexities of paying for things on your laptop, tablet or phone. Giving you one less thing to worry about and making family life that bit easier.
Simply create a PayPal account (it’s free to set up). All you need is an email address or mobile number and you’ll be asked to create a password. Once the account is open, you can link all the payment methods you want to use to shop – such as your bank account, credit or debit card to the account. Think of it as a digital version of your wallet, all the payment methods you would use in a shop, all in one place and accessible to use online.
Then, when you click the PayPal button to make a purchase, you can choose to use whichever method you like before you pay (and you can still get your credit card reward points). No more rooting around for your purse or wallet and entering long credit card numbers into small screens.
An added benefit is that PayPal’s One Touch™ can turn the 16 digits on your card into one touch of a button, allowing you to technically stay logged in to PayPal on your chosen devices. One Touch™ streamlines even having to enter your PayPal username and password every time.
The PayPal app is user-friendly and allows you to pay anyone quickly, easily, and securely – whether you’re paying for a virtual baby yoga class or paying back a neighbour for shopping. Download the app to check your balance and keep an eye on your spending, any time of the day or night.
PayPal’s Money Pools is a secure online kitty that lets you collect money and contribute easily. You can track your target and see who’s paid in. Whether the whole family is contributing to a baby shower or the entire street is taking part in a collection, Money Pools could be your solution.
We know family life can come with unexpected costs, especially with the arrival of a new little one, so if you need more time to pay, PayPal Credit is here to help.
