PayPal Service Availability - Country/Region of Residence and Available Services
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.

Great Post and very informative. There is only one issue the U. S. was on neither list. I don't understand something such as why the U.S. wasn't on either list.
I am terribly sorry I am losting my train of thought. Just bear with me. Again I am sorry about this.
If I can remember I will PM you instead if that will be okay.
Best wishes on your journey on your endeavors and much success in your business.

Thanks. I think this info is relevant to members of WA community so I had to share. I'm glad you've got that.
Replying on comments that are 3 years old may not be the best idea especially if you are just after points/earnings.

This is my blog post. I told you somewhere that I returned to WA as active after three years of taking care of my wife from stroke.

PayPal is removing accounts and freezing their money if they don’t like customers politics or what they do. There was a lot of outrage on Twitter about big accounts/charities that PayPal shutdown. At least one was a Childrens charity.
Not such a good option when companies such as this shut people down. It’s not their business to interfere. Too much of that going on with social media companies, it’s over the top for an online payment company to do the same.
Bit a company I would recommend anymore.
Hope it has improved its services.
No idea, I havent used it since. Though I did hear that they backtracked on closing n business accounts and keeping the money because there was such outrage and many people closed their accounts.
Oh, okay.
That's a news to me.
Changes happening every time we the end users are the ones directly affected.
