How to Transfer Money From PayPal Faster


1. Apply for a PayPal debit Card. The card is sponsored by MasterCard and works like a normal bank-issued debit card. Certain requirements, such as a 'verified account,' minimum spending habits and up-to-date account information, apply. If you have more than $5,000 in transaction history and no outstanding issues, PayPal usually issues a card without hassle. Once the debit card is issued, it can be used to withdraw up to $400 a day from nearly any ATM. Check with the ATM provider for usage fees.
2. Make a payment to someone who can provide cash. Use the 'Donate' or 'Make a payment' feature to send money to someone else's PayPal account, then have that person give you cash. Someone who has a PayPal debit card can extract the cash from an ATM, but bank fees could apply.
3. Purchase an item online, then return it to the physical store. With quick shipping options, the item could arrive the next day and most of the time will include an invoice or receipt in the packaging. This serves as proof of purchase for returns. Most stores, including Walmart, will accept returns in this manner. Although this does take longer than the methods mentioned above, it can still take considerably less time than waiting for a bank transfer to complete. Check with the store in question to ensure that its return policy allows this type of return. Without a PayPal debit card, the refund could be in cash or store credit.
4. Transfer the money from PayPal to another online service that allows instant bank transfers or wire transfers. Some services, such as Xoom (xoom.com), can transfer the money faster and offer debit card services as well. Check with local and national laws to ensure that these services are available and that they allow cash withdrawals.

How to Bill Customers Monthly with PayPal


1. Log in to your PayPal account, and click the Merchant Services tab on the top menu.
2. Click the Subscribe link under the Create Buttons section. This action creates customized HTML code for a button on your site that your customers can use to set up recurring billing, and it also creates a customized button you can use to bill your customers via email.
3. Customize your recurring monthly bill. Give the subscription an identifiable name in the Item Name field. If you anticipate many customers purchasing a subscription, give it a general name, such as 'Monthly Service Fee.' If it's a unique monthly bill for an individual customer, you can use the customer's name as the item name. Follow the on-screen instructions for all three steps to create a completely customized recurring subscription.
4. Click Create Button at the bottom of the screen.
5. In the next screen, copy and paste the custom code for your subscription button that PayPal generates for you. If you'd like to bill your customers via email, click the Email tab and copy and paste the custom billing URL into your invoice email.

PayPal amp; AMX Problems


Account Types
PayPal has two main options for collecting payments made by credit card. The first option is to place an order button on your site that links to PayPal. The customer completes the transaction on PayPal's website. An example is Express Checkout. With this type of PayPal-branded account, you will not have a problem with American Express. The second type of PayPal service is a merchant account, which means that you accept credit-card payments on your own website (Website Payments Pro) or through the mail, fax or phone (Virtual Terminal). Certain sellers encounter AMX payment problems with these merchant accounts.
History
On July 13, 2010, PayPal and American Express entered into a new agreement that includes restricted categories of transactions. Affected merchants using Website Payments Pro or Virtual Terminal must individually apply directly with AmEx to accept payments through PayPal. If American Express accepts the application, you won't have a problem collecting AMX payments through Website Payments Pro or Virtual Terminal. You can also use a Payflow Gateway account if you're accepted. If, however, the company denies your application, you can't accept payments through these merchant accounts.
Restricted Categories
If you do not sell products or services in any restricted category, then you do not have to worry about individual acceptance by American Express. If only some of your products and services are in a restricted category, then you could opt to segregate the restricted and non-restricted items into separate merchant accounts. Otherwise, a denial of your application on the restricted items would also deny your non-restricted items. At the time of publication, there are 25 restricted categories. Examples include securities, airlines, massage parlors and real estate.
Declined Transactions
If you haven't received approval from American Express to collect payments, your customers will experience declined payments when attempting to make an AMX transaction. The customer receives an error message, which could cause you to lose sales if she gets upset or is in too much of a hurry to prepare another credit card and go through the order process again.
Payment Flows
A payment flow is the process that your customers go through to buy your product. If you can't accept American Express, exclude it as an option in the payment flow. This process depends on your particular shopping cart and PayPal configuration. The PayPal "Tools" page provides details about the various ways to exclude American Express as a payment option.Another potential problem is the particular shopping cart that you use for e-commerce. If it doesn't provide a way to exclude American Express, switch shopping carts or post a message to your customers that you don't accept American Express.
Warnings
When you're opening a merchant account with PayPal, you'll see an American Express agreement. Even if you aren't a restricted merchant, you must agree to all terms of this agreement. Otherwise, you can't accept AMX payments.
