How to Use PayPal in Kenya Successfully

It is one of the world’s most used money transfer method. Despite this, it does not wok fully in all countries. PayPal has selected countries where people can withdraw to a local bank account or card and upload. Unfortunately, we are not in one of those countries where it functions fully.

Whereas you can upload funds to your PayPal account using a debit, credit or any Visa card, you cannot withdraw funds directly to your card or account in the same way. The reason for this is because our banks do not comply with the security measures PayPal might want to seek through Interpol or such law-enforcing agency.
