    I am selling something and I have got a buyer to purchase it.He cannot pay using paypal due to some limitation.However he can use his creditcard to make the payment

    How can I receive money to my paypal account if he with to pay by creditcard(not through paypal)?

    We tried escrow.com,but there is no option for paypal since both of us are not in US.

    Is there any other alternative?

    Please help

    Thanks

    What I would try (though this may not work) is, if you have a business paypal account, try signing up for Paypal's Virtual Terminal service. It would require that your buyer give you their information to enter into the system, but think of it as actual card swipe, without a paypal account attached to it.

    More info: https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_vt_hub-inside

    Hope this helps :).

    create a donation button and give him the link.he can pay with credit card without needing a paypal account.
    i think it just works if the credit card is not tied to any account,but i'm not sure.

    You can try using a shopping cart or billing system.
