Which sites accept PayPal
Thousands of sites accept PayPal, including major retailers such as eBay, Walmart and Best Buy, travel sites such as Booking.com and digital services such as Steam.
At checkout, look for the PayPal button, which millions of well-known brands offer both online and in person. Common examples by category include:
- Retailers and marketplaces: eBay, Walmart, Best Buy, Etsy and Target take PayPal payments.
- Travel and entertainment: Booking.com, Airbnb, Steam, Spotify and TikTok accept PayPal.
- Software and services: Microsoft Store, GoDaddy, Hostinger and TradingView support PayPal checkout.
Many popular online stores also accept PayPal Pay Later. A PayPal overview of acceptance should also cover India, where the rules differ:
- Cross-border only: Since 2021, PayPal has not supported domestic payments within India, so it works only for international transactions and foreign merchants.
- Indian shopping sites: Few mainstream Indian e-commerce websites accept PayPal directly, because most rely on domestic payment methods.
- UPI link: PayPal supports UPI through its PayPal World platform, mainly for international and cross-border payments.
If you are not sure whether a particular site takes PayPal, check its payment options page or look for the PayPal button before you reach the final payment step.
