Inventory management. On the go POS. Payments are able to be transferred immediately. No monthly fee is a plus. > > **Cons**: PayPal continues to change the reader and branding on the same product. Zettle was one. Every time the change the reader you have to buy a new one. Also I think the percentage could be better on transactions. > > My experience is just okay. I just use the POS when I have to sell inventory not in my normal shop. It is only used for traveling or mobile sales. ----- ### "It was Great- until they made one little change" — 4.0/5 > **Carol** | *23 January 2023* | Museums & Institutions | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's free, it's by PayPal so you can trust it and the price can't be beat > > **Cons**: I've let a lot of things slide because it's free, but now that they transfer EVERY credit card transaction to my PayPal account it's terrible to try to reconcile in Quickbooks. The reporting is truly terrible and the customer service is basically non-existent. Try to even find the help section on the PayPal site. It's like they bought and make money off this thing, but don't actually want to support it. > > I needed a quick fix when they were phasing out our version of Quickbooks POS and we wanted something a little more flexible. After spending nearly a month looking for a new system we settled on this one, price is right, processing fees aren't bad, reporting was adequate enough to get by and we expected/hoped that it would get better the longer it was in use in the US, I was very wrong. The 'features' they've added have been mostly useless. ----- ### "A Great Way to Accept Credit Cards With Your Cell Phone" — 5.0/5 > **Stu** | *7 May 2020* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Pay Pal Here allows me to accept credit cards for my business using my cell phone either with the accompanying dongle or via inputting the card info on my touch screen. > > **Cons**: The only con I have is that transactions over $500 have very long holds placed on them before the funds are available. > > I subscribe to another credit card processor, but all transactions must take place via the terminal in my office. With Pay Pal Here, I can accept a transaction anywhere else and then transfer the funds manually into my business checking account. Convenience is the main reason I use Pay Pal Here. ----- ### "PayPay for the win" — 4.0/5 > **Kristen** | *20 March 2022* | Insurance | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10 > > **Pros**: The availability of use from all different platforms The way I can manage and keep up with my business is amazing its better than Shopify in my opinion and way cheaper. Once you dive into PayPal Zettle you will see differences between them it's much easy to navigate. Very easy to learn a lot about my business I can now see what is trending in my stores online. > > **Cons**: I loved a lot about this software A LOT but the prices can get out of control just make sure you get what you need and not what u want if that makes sense. I ended up with a bigger bill than wanted but still got all services offered and it was still cheaper than shopify. > > Overall I really enjoy using this software its extremely easy to navigate through all my platforms are all hooked right into there I get all my business info. Really it been the best software I have used it seems it has more features than Shopify and cheaper. So its a win-win in my book GREAT JOB PAPPAYL ----- ### "Very convenient in making payment" — 4.0/5 > **Zuhairah** | *30 January 2021* | Banking | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: PayPal Here is an amazing payment processing platform that i can make payment for my shopping cart in foreign e-commerce website like Amazon or ebay. It can be install in my smartphone, and i don't have to log-in the platform from my computer, but its offer the same security for my payment account. There are thousand merchant that are accepting PayPal and that make it so convenient. > > **Cons**: The exchange rates from my currency to foreign currency is quite high and so different from other common daily exchange rate that other payment processor are using. On top of that, there are processing fees for the payment transfer. If they can lowering the processing fees, i can see others will use it more often as their payment processor. > > PayPal is secure and i fully trusting their securities regarding my payment account and credit card information that are linked in the platform. All my transaction activities are displayed in the main dashboard so that i can monitor any activity within my account. There are no option for transferring funds to friend \& family in my country, and i hoping it will introduced to us soon. ----- Page: 1 / 93\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/20123/paypal-here?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/20123/paypal-here) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
