To access PayPal's services, you must register at the site in the same way we've seen for Moneybookers and Neteller.
A PayPal account can be funded with an electronic debit from a bank account or by a credit card.
The recipient of a PayPal transfer can either request a check from PayPal, establish their own PayPal deposit account or request a transfer to their bank account or to their credit card.

The fees charged depend on the currency used, the payment option used, the country of the sender, the country of the recipient, the amount sent and the recipient's account type.
