To send money to PayPal, follow these steps: On the PayPal website:
- Go to "Send and Request."
- Enter the recipient's name, PayPal username, email address, or mobile number and click "Next."
- Enter the amount, choose the currency, add an optional note, then click "Continue."
- Choose your payment type (e.g., "For Goods and Services" or "For Friends and Family").
- Select your payment method and click "Next."
- Review the information and click "Send Payment Now."
On the PayPal app:
- Tap "Send/Request."
- Enter the recipient's information (name, @username, email, or mobile).
- Enter the amount, choose the currency, add an optional note, and tap "Next."
- Select the payment type, review the details, and tap "Send."
If the recipient doesn't have PayPal, they will be guided to sign up. Once sent, payments cannot be canceled or reversed. To send money using a PayPal.Me link, simply click the link, enter the amount, select the payment type and method, then send the payment. "Friends and Family" payments may have fees depending on payment source or if international; "Goods and Services" payments incur a small fee to the seller. Always choose the correct payment type based on your situation.
