More about mobile

Since introducing PayPal, my business has experienced a notable increase in sales. I've been amazed to see that over 20% of my customers are choosing PayPal's Express Checkout option to 'fast-track' the checkout process rather than pay by credit or debit card. PayPal appointed my company with our own account manager and it's reassuring to have a direct phone number and email address so that I can contact him whenever I have a query.
