PayPal Stories Archive

With two massive changes underway in the world - the digitization of cash and mass adoption of mobile devices - digital payments are transforming the way people manage and move their money as they shop, settle IOUs and plan for future expenses. PayPal has been at the forefront of this transformation since 1998, delivering payment solutions that are simple, secure and meet the needs of consumers and merchants in the digital age.

 

Over the past year, PayPal has been steadfast in its commitment to providing new product experiences and ways to seamlessly Pay with PayPal across different contexts.  In fact, yesterday we announced that PayPal will be integrated into the Android Pay wallet so our customers in the U.S. can pay wherever Android Pay is accepted in-app, online and in-store. This partnership is just one recent example of how PayPal is continuing to work with leaders in the industry to enable more choice, flexibility and transparency for our customers.

 

You may also recall that last year we rolled out changes to enable U.S. consumers to set their preferred payment method -- meaning that consumers can now set their default payment to their preferred credit card, debit card, bank account, PayPal balance or PayPal Credit. We’ve seen fantastic results from the rollout in the U.S. with millions of consumers already opting to select their preferred funding method within their PayPal wallet. That’s why we’re excited to extend this offering to our customers in Australia, Canada, China, Japan and the United Kingdom in the coming months with a goal to be available in over 200 markets around the world by early next year.

 

To show our customers how this comes to life, we’ve rolled out a new digital brand campaign in the U.S. called, “PayPal Can Do That” which highlights real-life scenarios where it pays to have choice and flexibility in how you manage and move your money with PayPal.
