How does paypal work??

Question

Paypal sounds okay but I'm a little on the 'huh?' side.Just exactly how does this thing work.Details would be great.I know you could put in your credit card number and get an account but say you got a new credit card and without even calling to make the bank account for that credit card,could you just make a paypal account with it or will this somehow blow up in your face and make you have no money???And how do you recieve the money from someone?And stuff......too many questions....so little time....Thanks for helping me out.

And how does alertpay work out???Do you have to have a credit card for that or no???How do they send you money and how do you recieve money from someone then put it in the alertpay account???

And how does bux.to work out???Do they send you money to your alertpay account then alertpay sends it to you?Do you have to have an alertpay account in order to keep all that green in or do you not have to have one in order to get money???And how do they send it???Mail???Email???

So many questions!?!?!?

Thanks for your help.

Answer 1

You can open a PayPal account without 'verifying' it. This means it's not linked to a bank account until you want it to be.

People can pay for things you sell and the accumulated money will be held in your PayPal account.

If you want to pay for goods over the internet you can pay with funds in your PayPal account, or you can use a credit card direct.

If you want to have the money from your PayPal account as cash, you will then need to link it to a bank account with or without a credit or debit card.

Once you have linked your account, if there is insufficient money in your PayPal account to make a purchase, money can be taken from your bank account (or credit card if you have linked that) to cover it.

Answer 2

When you use Pay-pal they will have you supply them with a bank account. They then deposit a small amount into the account and then you will need to confirm the account. If you go to help under paypal.com they will supply you with all of your answers. I have been using them with e-bay for a long time.  

Answer 3

PayPal's perfectly safe. I've used to pay for items on Ebay and elsewhere. I do prefer using my own credit card; I think it gives me more protection than PayPal. And receiving money through PayPal is also very simple and secure.
