I used to live in the United States and recently moved to Germany. Using PayPal for payments is a lot more common here than Germany. In fact I connected my Uber account to my credit card via PayPal and my partner pays for a lot of things online via PayPal.
PayPal is also used for transferring money between friends and family quite frequently

- valina-line 8mo agoYeah! Germany is big in the PayPal game; especially since they introduced delayed payment. There's an new alternative: https://wero-wallet.eu/ https://wero-wallet.eu/ I think the reasoning was to be less dependent on the US. I hope to see it exceed – more competition is great.
