How to take payments on PayPal

To take payments on PayPal, create a business or personal account, share your PayPal.me link or email address with clients, and receive funds directly. Once a payment arrives, you can transfer it to your linked Indian bank account, though PayPal charges currency conversion fees and the process can take several business days. Indian freelancers and exporters often find PayPal's fees add up quickly, especially for regular international transactions.

For a faster and more cost-effective alternative, consider Skydo, an RBI-authorised cross-border payments platform designed specifically for Indian exporters and freelancers. Skydo offers competitive exchange rates, lower fees, and direct transfers to your Indian bank account, making it easier to manage international payments. You can also review a detailed PayPal overview to compare features and decide which platform best suits your business needs.
