    I wish to transfer around $100.00 to someone's paypal in US, with my credit card. My country doesn't really allow Paypal accounts (Pakistan that is). Can anybody please guide me on the procedure to follow.

    You can try t ask the receiver to send you a request of payment. Maybe it will work... I am not sure.

    thewebhostingdir is correct. For PayPal Accounts, there is an option called PayPal Account Optional. Premier and Business Account holders can toggle this switch and then they can send you a request for payment either as a send money request, an invoice, or even a buy now button. You click on that request and on the form there is an option if you don't have a PayPal Account to just pay using your credit card.

    It won't work. Paypal doesn't support Pakistan period. You can't use a CC or debit card issued by a Pakistani bank for making paypal payments.

    You are right! I just went and checked the list of Countries in the drop down box, when using PayPal Optional... and while India is available for selection, Pakistan is not.

    I can understand why PayPal chooses not to allow actual accounts in certain countries but why they wouldn't accept Credit Cards from all countries I don't know.

    Sorry for the misleading information but abdussamad is right - the credit card option is not available to Pakistan.
