PayPal: Create an account - use the service provider

Paying on the Internet should always be safe, which is why you have certainly already dealt with the service provider PayPal. But not only the desire to shop safely on the Internet, but also because many Internet stores specify the service as a payment option, can be decisive for creating an account.

How to create an account with PayPal

Setting up an account with PayPal securely is very easy and can be done within a few minutes.

1. First, visit PayPal's website and click on the "Register New" button.
2. A new window will now open where you will need to select whether you want to create a "Personal Account" or a "Business Account". Select the option that is right for you.
3. Now enter the appropriate information about your country, your first name as well as last name and deposit your email address. Now you have to enter a secure password and confirm it.
4. Now enter your registration address as well as your phone number and confirm your entries by clicking on the button "Register".
5. You will now receive an email in which you will find a confirmation link. Click the link.
6. You are on the login page of PayPal. Enter your password there and click "Next". Now you still need to choose a security question to make your account even more secure.

Increase security

By entering not one but two security questions, you can ensure that the security of your PayPal account is increased even more. When doing so, make sure that you select individual questions.
