Our work with PayPal will now offer additional payment options which are simple, safe, secure and, trusted by millions of UK shoppers, offering further online choice for time-pressed consumers however they choose to shop with us.”
Vincent Belloc, Managing Director at PayPal UK, added: “PayPal has 32 million active accounts in the UK, and is trusted by shoppers who buy, sell, and send money—without sharing their financial information. E-commerce has always been about giving consumers a convenient way to buy what they want, when they want, and being able to pay for it how they want.”
