## Reviews

### "Good but not great" — 4.0/5

> **Anonymous User** | *26 March 2026* | Fine Art | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to set up and go. 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.

### "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

### "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.

### "LOVE AT FIRST PAYMENT\! LOL LITERALLY." — 5.0/5

> **Ashley** | *3 February 2020* | Cosmetics | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: EASY SIGN UP, PAYPAL IS WELL KNOWN AND USED BY MILLIONS OF PEOPLE. I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THE FACT THAT THEY GIVE YOU YOUR CHIP/CARD READER FOR FREE\!\! I ALSO LOVE HOW YOU CAN EASILY CREATE YOUR MENU OF PRODUCTS AND PRICES TO MAKE CHECKOUT AND PAYMENT PROCESSING EASIER. (RIGHT FROM MY PHONE TOO).
> 
> **Cons**: I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT IT. NO CONS\! WHAT'S NOT TO LOVE?
> 
> AS I STATED BEFORE, "I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THE FACT THAT THEY GIVE YOU YOUR CHIP/CARD READER FOR FREE\!\! I ALSO LOVE HOW YOU CAN EASILY CREATE YOUR MENU OF PRODUCTS AND PRICES TO MAKE CHECKOUT AND PAYMENT PROCESSING EASIER. (RIGHT FROM MY PHONE TOO)." IT MAKES OWNING A BUSINESS EASIER AND HELPS YOU FEEL LIKE A BOSS WITH CONFIDENCE.

### "Great option for inside business sales for small businesses\!" — 5.0/5

> **Coty** | *23 July 2019* | Consumer Electronics | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: PayPal here was always a tool I used before I grew my small business. It offered simple, easy to use and understand mechanics that some merchant transaction softwares didn't offer. I love how easy it is to use, and especially how quick it is. Most of all, I love how I can incorporate this into my already existing PayPal Business account to always manage receipts, invoices, and history.
> 
> **Cons**: I dislike the amount per swipe percentile. Each business has their fees, whilst there's others out there who are cheaper to use.
> 
> The experience I have with PayPal is always amazing. They're safe, reliable, and I wouldn't choose any other software to manage my in store transactions.
