How to activate PayPal

To activate PayPal in India, visit the PayPal website and click "Sign Up." Choose a business or personal account, enter your email, create a password, and provide your personal details including PAN and address. Verify your email through the confirmation link PayPal sends. Next, link your Indian bank account or debit card by entering the account details in the Wallet section. PayPal will make two small deposits to verify ownership, and you confirm the amounts to complete activation. Once verified, your account is ready to send and receive payments.

While PayPal is widely recognized, Indian exporters and freelancers often find better value with alternatives like Skydo, an RBI-authorised cross-border payments platform that offers faster settlement times and more competitive exchange rates. Before committing to any provider, review the PayPal overview to understand fee structures and processing speeds, then choose the platform that best suits your business needs and transaction volume.
