Paypal Credit Card Payments

Please visit www.paypal.co.uk to learn more about this facility.

Basically it is a reputable service which enables you, once you have registered with them - to send money in any currency using your credit card to anyone in the world with an email address.

This can be invaluable for things like

* getting prepayment for tickets you buy for friends eg to the theatre

* sending money to overseas relatives

* giving money to charity

We use Paypal for credit card payment on this web site because they charge considerably less for processing the payment than other credit card services.

For example we had to transfer £200 to Canada recently - to someone who had done some work for us but who did not take credit cards. To do this by bankers draft was going to cost £30. With Paypal it cost us less than a tenth of this. They also received their money directly in Canadian dollars.
