PayPal Philippines can now receive payments
September 28, 2007
Christmas has surely come early to online Filipino earners.
First, Google today surprised Adsense publishers in the Philippines by offering payments via Western Union free of charge. Now just a few minutes ago, PayPal started offering Philippine-based accounts the ability to receive payments from any PayPal account holder.
That’s right. PayPal’s official website now shows the Philippines as a Send-Receive-Withdraw country, meaning PayPal Philippines account holders can send AND receive payments, AND also withdraw funds to a bank account in the US or to a credit, debit or prepaid card.

Our members have confirmed that, indeed, they can now accept PayPal payments. Read more in PMT Forum’s PayPal Philippines can now accept payments thread.

You have a good question. Anybody could answer that query? We will take this opportunity and the Pinoys can now do more business from the online world!
Lizlee,
1. Your primary bank account should be linked to your Paypal account.
First you need to activate the “Activate Account Box” after you’ve logged on. Select the “Add Checking Account” option.
2.Just fill out your primary bank account information. If this has been linked to Paypal service then no need to do this everytime you plan to transfer the funds to your bank account.
3.Choose the “Withdraw Money”. Once you clicked that button there will be some options to choose from. Take note that there are service charges if you want to withdraw money other than the free-of-charge funds transfer to your bank account (Check the Paypal Services if in Philippines they are charging the money transfer to your bank account). Do not forget to choose the transfer money to your bank account as your option.
4.Key in the dollar amount that you wished to get from you Paypal to your bank account. Of course make sure that your desired money to be transfered should be equal or less than the money you have with your Paypal account.If your bank account is in PHP then this will be converted automatically.
5.That’s it and wait for the money transfer to your bank account which normally take 7 days or more.
You can check out over the internet o check with Paypal services if some are not applcable within the Philippines.

Hi,
I want to sign up for Paypal for online shopping but the thing is I don’t have a credit card only a bank account, is it still possible for me to use PayPal even if I only have a bank account here in the Philippines? What is the process?

I have my paypal account and it isn’t verified yet cause i don’t have credit card too. But i have tried purchasing globe load online and it works! But as far as i know, you can only use $500 of your paypal earnings even without verifying it with any bank or credit cards. Hope that helped.Ü

I sent $297.00 to paypal for emergency treatment for my fiancee in St Valencia 10 December 2008 we still cannot withdraw it from the account even using a BDO account debit card to acctivate and confirm the account. They will not offer why this has been the case with three different banks and will only offer that we have to confirm the account with the Debit card. They are criminals in my opinion but we now use http://www.telfund.com/50461562/ which cost $2.00 to transfer money much better than WU who a while back charged me £50.00

Hi! I’ve had my paypal account for quite a while now but I found out recently that you can send money to the philippines cheaper by using it.. just want to ask if I’m sending the money to a dollar account in the philippines using canadian funds will it be converted to philippine peso or does paypal allow to send US funds in philippines? I will really appreciate if I get an answer… thanks! :)
