How to get PayPal account

To get a PayPal account, visit PayPal's website, click "Sign Up," and choose between a personal or business account. You'll need to provide your email address, create a password, and enter basic details like your name, address, and phone number. For business accounts, additional information about your company may be required. Once registered, link a bank account or card to send and receive payments. PayPal is widely used but charges conversion markups and fees that can add up for Indian freelancers receiving international payments.

If you're an Indian exporter or freelancer looking for a more cost-effective alternative, consider Skydo. It's an RBI-authorised cross-border payments platform designed specifically for receiving international payments with faster processing times and lower fees compared to PayPal overview options. Skydo offers transparent pricing, competitive exchange rates, and seamless integration with Indian bank accounts, making it easier to manage your foreign income without the hefty charges traditional platforms impose.
