PayPal Receive Functionality Now Available in the Philippines
Friday
Sep 28, 2007
Paypal users from the Philippines have reason to rejoice: PayPal now allows Philippine-registered accounts to receive funds. Check out Pinoy Money Talk for more information. I’ll be posting more about this soon.
I’m still playing around with my local account. So far, I cannot register with a local bank (only US banks are enabled for receiving funds), so the only way to actually receive money is to credit the funds back to a debit/credit card. Still, being able to receive money easily would be a big boost to business here, especially for those who have clients from abroad (like freelance writers, designers, bloggers, etc.).

Pano nyo po tinatransfer yung nasa paypal nyo d2 sa ating account sa ph?
Freelance programmer kasi ako, and madalas wire transfer ang bayad sa akin, directly sa accounts ko d2 sa phil, promary account ko ay sa BPI.
Ang laki lagi ng kaltas ng banks natin d2, $500 ko nagiging $400 mula sa last transaction ko (grabe diba)
So inaabangan ko lagi na maging enabled ang paypal d2 sa atin sa pinas, anyway I heard about dun sa debit card pwede ko daw icredit yun nasa paypal ko ngayon papunta dun, sang bank kayo kumuha ng debit card?
May mga nagbabayad din sa akin sa paypal, medyo lumalaki na yung nasa paypal ko kaya gus2 ko na pong icash out eh,
I also heard about dun sa xoom, anyone using it? okay po ba dun?
Thanks po ulit in advance sa help nyo
