Series: Tips for making money online business.
Paypal is a company that belongs to Ebay used to send and receive money via internet. This requires an international credit card. It is a very safe but not free of hazards.
Paypal is used by more than 100 million people in over 190 countries.
It is widely used for all types of commercial transactions. It is one of the main methods of payment on Ebay.
To open an account with Paypal must select the type of transactions will, for example if we only make purchases or make purchases and sales. There is also the option for companies. My recommendation is to choose the "Premier" which serves both to buy and to sell.
You have to select the country and language. Currently only configured for Spanish, French, English and Chinese.
You are then prompted to enter your personal information, including:
- Email
- Choose a password
- Name
- Date of Birth
- Nationality
- Address
- Phone Number
After this comes the trickiest part of the registration, data entry of credit card. The first time you do is common to feel a little nervous but paypal is a safe direction.
That padlock that appears in the navegacón bar indicates a direction protected.
You enter the full card number, month and year of expiration and the CSC. 
The CSC is a security number that is mid in the back of the card.
Verification number is a need Paypal to charge fees to your card.
At the end of this occurs "Continue" to PayPal to process our data. Then we have to give a verification email.
An important detail that is many times we get e-mails supposedly from Paypal which tells us we have to follow along a link and change the password to paypal. This trick is called "phishing" is an email that tries to masquerade as real when he wants to steal the key.
So how to tell if an email is really from Paypal??
Any email from Paypal has our name on it. Always greets us by name. We can also go directly through www.paypal.com no need for an email.
I hope this little guide has been helpful to them.
