Holiday Shopping Tips from PayPal

In addition to the chance to win every time customers spend or donate $10 or more with PayPal this holiday season, there are several other ways to shop smart with PayPal this year:

• Split payments with Pay in 4 from PayPal (Buy Now, Pay Later): Pay in 4 lets customers break purchases between $30 to $1,500 into four interest-free payments, providing a more flexible way to shop and pay for holiday wants and needs. Customers will see the option to Pay in 4 when they check out with PayPal at millions of online retailers. Pay in 4 is seamlessly integrated into the checkout flow with PayPal alongside all their other payment methods.
• Shop safely and securely: Customers should do all they can to protect themselves against scams, phishing, and other security issues while shopping online. The PayPal wallet securely stores credit card, debit card, and bank account information in one place so customers can safely pay at millions of retailers globally without sharing their financial information.
• Uncover deals and shop within the PayPal app: The new PayPal app includes PayPal Shopping, a new destination to discover exclusive deals, make purchases, and earn rewards seamlessly within the app. PayPal Shopping presents customers with discounts and offers on hundreds of popular brands and customers can shop through the in-app browser. 
• Give at Checkout: PayPal’s Give at Checkout feature allows customers to give micro-donations of just $1 when they check out with PayPal, an easy way to give back to causes.
• Check out with PayPal In-Store: Customers can check out using PayPal QR Codes at millions of businesses in the US to pay in person with PayPal. Plus, when customers check out with PayPal QR Codes for the first time at a CVS store, they could be eligible for cashback on purchases. Using this seamless payment option in the store is simple. After opening the PayPal app, users click the QR Code icon, select the “Show to Pay” option, and have the cashier scan the QR code.
