How to use paypal? If your country isnt there??

Well this is the most common question that i see ( As i am from Pakistan ) and almost every Pakistani webmaster like me *or any other webmaster from a country where paypal is yet to come asks this question

HOW CAN I USE PAYPAL ????


There are 2 ways if your country isnt in the paypal list.

1: If you have any relatives in countries like the us , uk etc in which paypal is there , you can ask for there address and sort things out.

2: The other way is to use wrong address ( which i suggest is the worst , worse than no paypal at all ) because if you use faulty address , you are sure to get your account closed sooner or later.

Then what to do if you dont have any relatives that can help you out or you dont want to use the 2nd method.

Well the answer is simple , Dont use paypal at all
Its fair to ask : This is no answer to my question???

To be honest i dont think there is any other way to use paypal than the above two ( if you know any please share )

So what to do now??
Well you can always choose other payment processing options like:

Use a credit card for all payments ( not the best alternative )
Use E-gold (http://www.egold.com ) ( Its is a better choice )
Use Moneybookers (http://www.moneybookers.com)
And many more.

So whats the summary : If your country isnt in the paypal list , well then wait till it comes LOL

Ps. Last time i checked with paypal staff , paypal in pakistan will take atleast 2 years so sit back and do nothing till then

IF YOU THINK ANYTHING ABOVE IS INCORRECT PLEASE CORRECT ME . ALSO IF YOU HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS PLEASE DO SHARE.

 

Yes..The answer is forget to use it.. If you still need to pay something using paypal, ask someone from other country to help.

 

but it may takes YEARS !!, and your business opp is not waiting you, so
+ you can consider move to us, hire address, and open bank.
+ create a company and create business banking, which cost alot >.<
+ wait for years

 

With the current situation in Pakistan, i think it would take over two years for Paypal to get running in Pakistan.
There is no great alternative to Paypal since most people in the world only accept or can pay via paypal.

 

Well , my article is an answer to a question that is very common , as i have stated above .

ntlntl: LOL , if it were the last answer, even then i wouldnt do those things

YesMoreTraffic: It may be so , but i am in touch with the paypal staff by email *i bug them all the time when will they have pakistan in there list ) and due to the situation here , it may take more than 2 years.

 

I am in same situation like you, as a Bangladeshi

After thinking a lot, I got a way to use PayPal. I spend over $2k for this process and so far my process is 80% done. After complete the process I will open my PayPal.

And you know I can't confirm it without using few months and a lot transaction that my PayPal is secured

 

Well dude , isnt 2k too much , and is it worth it??

Ace.

 

In my part, it's worth a lot, actually I spend total $3k

But others can do that at $2k limit

 

dont use paypal if your country not listed in it, as chances r your account will be limited and you can get back

better use alternatives like moneybookers or egold
