    PayPal is a competitor to Google's own payment system... but the real reason is probably, rightly or wrongly, Google considering your inability to have a credit card indicating you are not worthy of a being a customer. Although in many instances that would be unfair, they would be looking at the total value of non-credit card customers (and running separate payment systems for them) vs not having them.

    Of course Google is a US company, and US companies often make the mistake of assuming the rest of the world operates just like they do. They might think that everyone gets given credit cards in cereal packets...

    PayPal merchant fees are quite a bit higher than other merchant fees. I have an offline business with merchant fees around 1.60% for swiped cards and 2.20% for keyed in entries. I believe paypal is around 4%. With google's volume it might be one of the things they consider. Also, way would they want to deal with paypal disputes? :).

    The problem with paypal is that they charge a fee to the payee also, when the amount is fair or big. Thus Google avoids paypal.

    Google avoids paypal because paypal is owned by ebay and even though all large corporates are part of a huge cartel, they outwardly show off that google's ideology is different from paypal. SO I think they would never accept paypal as payment method for google services. If at all, they will ask you to use google checkout to pay for it.

    Find someone in the forum who will be able to pay using credit card or online bank transfer and you can send the equivalent money to their paypal from your paypal.

    Google Adwords and other Main Advertising networks like Yahoo and Microsoft accept only a credit card so that the funding is never denied in future. Some ad networks accept verified paypal because it brings you a security that it wont be denied. One more thing to be considered is that a credit card ensures legal identity.
