Keying in Credit Card numbers

[ret1red]

Hi, I just signed up to use Paypal for my guide business.  Most of my transactions are by phone and they give me their credit card info, I cannot figure out how to key in the credit card info.  Any help would be great!

If you want to take credit card payments directly you need to use the PayPal Here app.  

There is NO seller protection for taking credit cards in person.  Fees are also higher for keying in numbers than swiping card.

I applied for paypalhere and they are sending me the swipe reader, I am a fishing guide and most of my deposits are made by phone calls where they give me their numbers, I just need to be able to input the numbers.  I am not worried about fraud as I will meet the people at some point or they won't get my service.

You should have been given a link to download the PayPal Here, if not find it for your operating system.  You can use that on your smartphone or tablet with internet access.  You can key in numbers (fee is 1% point higer to keyed numbers) or swipe.  You are the one who determines of the card is fraudulent or not.
