PayPal Service Availability - Country/Region of Residence and Available Services
Published on September 25, 2022
Published on Wealthy Affiliate — a platform for building real online businesses with modern training and AI.
Many starter members here at Wealthy Affiliate have been commenting that they don't have PayPal Service in their country of residence or either they are unable to receive payments through their PayPal account. And so, I decided to lookup on PayPal website and what I found from PayPal website was shocking.
Knowing the PayPal service in different countries is important if you are doing paid promotion of your Wealthy Affiliate referral links to these countries.
YOU MAY HAVE AS MANY REFERRALS SIGNING UP FOR STARTER M, BUT TO BECOME A PREMIUM MEMBER OF WEALTHY AFFILIATE WILL BE DETERMINED BY THE AVAILABITY OF PAYPAL SERVICE IN THEIR COUNTRY OF RESIDENCE.
WHY??? ... Note that Wealthy Affiliate is ONLY USING PayPal to pay out the WA commission.
This is something that we can take note of as we promote Wealthy Affiliate to different countries.
