How to make PayPal account in India

To make a PayPal account in India, visit the PayPal website and click "Sign Up". Choose between a personal or business account, enter your email address, create a password, and fill in your personal details including name, address, and phone number. Link your Indian bank account or card to verify your account and enable transactions. While PayPal is available for sending money abroad, it does not support receiving international payments in India, which limits its usefulness for freelancers and exporters.

For receiving cross-border payments, consider using PayPal alternatives like Skydo, an RBI-authorised platform built specifically for Indian exporters and freelancers. Skydo offers faster settlements, lower fees, and full compliance with Indian regulations, making it a more practical choice for professionals earning from international clients.
