PAYPAL OPTIONS IN CAMEROON

[YONG58]

Hello...

I just created a paypal personnal account(based in Cameroon) and I intend to link it to sites on which I sell my digital products. I wish to be clarified on the following aspects please:

- Can I link a local bank account to the paypal? ; If yes,

- Will I be able to receive payments into my paypal, transfer  to my local bank account and withdraw cash out? If not,

- Does paypal offer altrenatives within it's services?

THANKS ...

No, only a credit card.

No, the option to receive paypal payments is not available in Cameroon as per below link.

 Thanks for the reply and link. I guess from this that  for now, PayPal doesn' t permit most African sellers and freelancers to receive payments

from their online services.

 Quite unfortunate, given that the number of persons involved is not negligible.

I think a lot of African countries can receive paypal payments.

A lot of the countries in that list are not in Africa and a lot of countries in Africa are not on that list of not being able to receive paypal payments.
