keeps your credit card details secure

I love being able to use Paypal when paying for things online. It means that I don't have to hand over my credit card details to random companies. They're great for making and receiving payments, although they do have really high fees when it comes to receiving funds from a buyer.

Trustworthy

Paypal is an excellent service used to send and receive money. You can also purchases items through it. It's a very honest and trustworthy service. The app is simple and easy to use. I prefer to make all my online purchases through Paypal.

paypal FTW

I love that i can buy from just about anywhere and feel safe and secure. I can also send money to my children in the states with paypal and not have to think about hefty fees. I have used numerous times from buying from ebay and staores to sending money.

I love PayPal! It's so convenient. It's great that there is an app now too. It makes it so easy to go shopping online. Also it gives you peace of mind that your payment options won't be hacked. Also I like it when a company offers PayPal it makes me feel the company is legitimate.

I'm constantly buying off EBay & now more store checkout with Paypal which is convenient & easy to use!

i recently found out paypal had an app. i love it! i shop using pay pal a lot and am able to use the app to look into things! love it!

I like the PayPal app, it's convenient to use and easy to understand.
Although, there isn't many features.. I still prefer the website!
(I'm looking forward to more merchants using PayPal locally, then the app will be of more use to me!!!!!)

I attended the launch of this new app and was really excited to learn about it as I love testing out new apps and especially ones with time saving technology. The way this app works is you upload a picture of yourself, your banking info (or link to your existing paypal account) and you can use your phone to pay at restaurants and cafes. Ridiculously easy. It tells you which restaurants in your area accept this form of payment automatically. So if I'm at the office I can see that my favourite coffee shop (Sense Appeal) accepts it and if I'm at home I can see which places in my neighbourhood accept it.

Right now for Canada it's only about 50 restaurants, cafes and bars in Toronto that accept this form of payment. It's also available in some cities in the US and Europe. They plan to expand beyond that and I really look forward to when it's more readily available because with 2 small kids I have forgotten my wallet on more than one occasion. Oh, did I mention that? You can leave your wallet at home. Your photo on the app is your ID. Brilliant, right?

They also display coupons that vendors are offering that are automatically applied to your account when you make a purchase. All you have to do is check-in at the location (it's private - doesn't go anywhere), tell the cashier you are paying with paypal and then you're done.

There are a few more features I'd love to see to give it 5 stars:
I'd love to see more vendors on the list as well as the ability to search by neighbourhood or postal code. So if I'm at home, deciding where to go for dinner I can search to see which restaurants are on board or look up a specific area.

It would be ideal to have reviews tied to it. They could plug into google's api.

Would love to have the ability to print off the receipts from the app. Right now it displays the receipts but would be great if I could print or email them to myself directly from the app.

Right now it's just for restaurants. Would love to see retailers get on board with this.

Overall: Very convenient to use and it's free!
