Hi guys! Just wondering, I have been receiving Paypal payments for a long time now while doing design work, and selling websites etc. I really am sick of the wait for the money to be deposited into my bank account. And I dont like leaving a lot of money in my Paypal account at one time. It typically takes Paypal anywhere from 4-8 business days to deposit the money directly to my bank account. In times I need to have access to some of that money and I am stuck waiting and waiting for it to be deposited. Its pretty frustrating because you know you have money, but right then it is only "web money" . Any suggestions for an online alternative to accepting payments that will deposit faster than Paypal?? I once got someone to use Western Union but the fees and the hassle for that service are astronaumical. Rep will be left
Please see my post above as I said I have used Western Union but the fees and hassle for the person depositing the money are astronaumical. Thanks though
Can you get a PayPal Debit Card in Canada? It let's you take out up to $400 daily via a bank machine. As soon as money is deposited you can withdraw. Edit: "The PayPal Debit Card is not being offered to new members at this time. We hope to expand our debit card services to the Canadian PayPal community in the future."
If you have Canadian clients they can pay via "Interac Email Money Transfer" directly into your bank account.
Thanks Tobycoke, I completely forgot about the Interac Email Money Transfer And I really cannot waite for the Paypal Debit Card. Thanks for your helpful replies. Rep left
yeah, I use Interac Email Money Transfers all the time. Luckily I even found a pretty decent web hosting provider that accepts it
Most transfers to a checking account are sent via your banks direct deposit function; it typically takes 3 or more business days for a transfer to be completed. I'm not sure there's any faster way to get paid your funds unless it's a wire transfer. I'd recomend a PayPal debit/credit card to access the funds faster or using a bank that accepts the payments in a shorter time span. Using some direct deposit services i've gotten PayPal funds transfered in just 2 days or so... I've started using the PayPal debit to solve this issue however. Best of luck to you.
