    Do you know about mamu, bhai ? ask them j/k :D:D

    1) how to do registration ( i visited paypal site but it's very confusing...cudnt find how to register/ under which catagory)
    https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_registration-run
    Personal if you dont have a CC
    Business if you have a CC to verify your account.

    2) r there any charges for registration? if yes ... how much?
    Personal Account - Free
    Business Account - 1.99$/one time

    3) what is the procedure ( billing n recieving payments)
    Whatever you earn shows in your account and when you need you can click on withdraw and withdraw money.

    4) how many days it takes to get payment thru paypal
    They take a week for processing your cheque
    After that 10-25 days for the cheque to reach the payment at your home

    5) how will i recieve the payment ... cheque at the door step ? / .. online transfer to my accnt in Bombay ... or what?
    They charge 5$ for every cheque they process and also the cheque's are from Citibank and they come to your doorstep @ post man!

    Anything else? :D

    Personal account - withdrawal limit 500$/month
    Lifetime total withdrawal limit 3000$

    Business account - withdrawal limit 2500$/month
    Lifetime total withdrawal limit - No limits until u r banned ;)

    Personal account - Sending limit - 100$ Lifetime

    Business account - Sending limit - No limits

    Also if you having a verified business account your clients have faith on you as you cannot run away with someone's money ;)

    You can do that anything.
    Also if you have a business account you can get credit card payments.

    DP most,
    If you have a personal account,you can receive payments,but not by Credit Cards.
    You can withdraw without any CC,but there is a limit,I think ( unverified)

    Your sending limit is also restricted ,if you are unverified.

    you can find solutions here, at: www.goopen.net
    I provide solutions allow people outside US open US Bank account and use PayPal. If you dont have passport, you can use Cirrus card, you can open your own PayPal account :D

    Do you live in Mumbai? I mean if you are an Indian,the sending limit for an unverified PayPal member is something about 100$.So even if you do not have a Credit card,but have some balance in your PayPal,you can send money upto 100 $.
