How to open PayPal account in India

To open a PayPal account in India, visit the PayPal website and click "Sign Up." Choose between a personal or business account, then provide your name, email address, and a secure password. Complete the registration by adding your Indian mobile number and linking an Indian bank account or credit card for verification. PayPal will send a confirmation code to verify your details. Once verified, your account is active and you can receive international payments, though withdrawals to Indian banks may take several business days and incur fees. If you're looking for alternatives to PayPal overview options, platforms like Skydo offer faster, more cost-effective international payment solutions specifically designed for Indian exporters and freelancers, with full RBI authorisation and competitive exchange rates.
