How to open a PayPal Account in Zimbabwe

After making your sales online, the next question is how do I get paid? In this post, I will explain how to open a PayPal Account in Zimbabwe and link it to your bank account.

How PayPal Account Works

PayPal allows any business or individual with an email address to send and receive payments online in a secure and convenient way. PayPal uses banks and credit cards to process payments. You will link all your cards to one place and then choose your preferred card for payment.

With a PayPal account, you can shop and pay without entering your payment card details every time. PayPal encrypts your financial information and keeps it private. Using PayPal keeps your financial information more secure no matter which website you shop on.

How To Sign Up

Signing up is easy, and I will walk you through the steps to guide you through the process. You can also view the video on the PayPal website that explains how to use PayPal.

STEP 1: Select your account type. Then choose For You in the left box option.

STEP 2: Create your login details. Ensure your personal information is accurate when signing up for your PayPal account. Use the correct National ID or passport number. Use your full name from your passport.

Let PayPal know the email address and the password you want to use. These will be the details you use each time you log into your account in the future. So choose a password you know you will remember.

What if I already have a PayPal business account?

If you already have a business account setup, you’ll need to set up your new account with a personal email address, bank account and credit or debit card. You can also upgrade your personal account to a business account if you don’t already have one.

STEP 3: Give more personal information.

Provide more details such as your name, date of birth, address and contact details. Cross check and make sure the details match your National ID or passport. Then check the box to accept PayPal terms and conditions.

STEP 4: Link your bank card

Link your credit card or debit card by adding it to your PayPal account. It will save you time when you shop online, and secures your financial information and purchases against potential fraud. You can link your credit or debit cards for immediate use.
