I didn’t know how to get the cash in hand.
Then I came across PayPal.
Paypal helps you transfer the money you earn to your bank a/c in India.
In this post, I’ll show you how to create & verify your paypal a/c in India.
After following this guide you’ll be able to:
  • Create your new PayPal a/c
  • Link your Bank a/c to it
  • Verify your account for receiving payments

Why you need a paypal a/c?

If you work online from India, companies abroad cannot directly send money to your bank account.
So, they use PayPal.

How to use Paypal?

After you create your PayPal a/c, if someone needs to send you money, you just have to give them your PayPal email.
Your Paypal email is the email which you used when creating your paypal account.
It acts like an account number for PayPal.

What is PayPal?

Paypal is an online service used to transfer money worldwide.

Opening your new PayPal account :

First, make sure you have these two things:
  1. Your PAN card
  2. and a Bank account (which matches your name on the PAN card)
If you don’t have a PAN card, learn how to apply for a PAN card here. There is no age limit for PAN, so anyone can apply.

Follow the steps below to open a PayPal a/c :

  1. Create a new account by going to paypal.com and clicking on the sign up button.
  2. Next, click the ‘Get Started’ button for individuals.
