Okay, so I live in South Africa and can't accept money through Paypal, only send. I just read on a site that Xoom helps people from countries (who aren't supported for paypal) to receive money through Paypal. Is this true??? How does it work? Here is where I read it: http://www.azoto.org/2007/09/what-will-you-do-if-your-country-is-not.html
Hi, I'm exactly in your position. And Xoom worked 100% for me! The only bad thing is the $9.99 Fee... But I assure you it works 100% and its transfered directly into my FNB Bank account! Where in SA are you?
FYI : xoom only support several countries, you can check there on the site if your country is selected for sending and receiving money, i have been using xoom for almost 2 years and i can say that it was really great.
it's easy your buyer pays xoom via paypal/cc and you can receive payments via Check or Bank transfer it's way faster than paypal's check delivery.
You're from SA too? Awesome!!!!! Cool to see some locals! Finally! I'm originally from George, but I'm now studying in Cape Town so I go back and forth between the two all the time but I guess you can say I'm from Cape Town (Durbanville). And you? Where are you from? Thanks so much... cool to hear that it worked out for another South African.
