To create a PayPal account, follow these steps: 1. **Visit the PayPal website:** Go to the official PayPal website. 2. **Click on "Sign Up":** Look for the "Sign Up" or "Create Account" button on the homepage. 3. **Choose Account Type:** Select the type of account you want to create - "Personal" or "Business." 4. **Provide Email and Password:** Enter your email address and create a password for your PayPal account. 5. **Complete Personal Information:** Fill in your personal information, including your legal first and last name, address, and phone number. 6. **Link Bank Account or Credit/Debit Card:** PayPal will ask you to link a bank account or credit/debit card to your account. This helps in making payments and receiving funds. 7. **Confirm Email:** PayPal will send a confirmation email to the address you provided. Click on the link in the email to confirm your email address. 8. **Verify Identity:** In some cases, PayPal may ask for additional information to verify your identity. This could include uploading a photo of your ID or linking a bank account. 9. **Set Security Questions:** For added security, you may need to set up security questions or two-factor authentication. Once you've completed these steps, your PayPal account should be set up and ready to use. Remember to review PayPal's policies and terms of use.

A lot of those options they cannot do in their country.

You can't add a local bank account / and rarely a debit card in your country.
You can only link a visa credit card.

Also the option to receive Paypal payments is sadly not available in Ethiopia.
You can only send payments for purchases funded by your (confirmed) credit card.

Paypal varies a lot country to country and can only offer the services that the banks / governments of that country allow it to offer.
There are quite a few countries unable to receive Paypal payments.
