More Corporations Jumping On Board With Paypal

The list of corporations signing on to offer Paypal as a payment option for customers is growing ever longer. Over the last year and a half, airlines such as Northwest and Southwest have jumped on board, allowing customers to use Paypal accounts to pay for flights. Now, the almighty Delta Airlines has followed suit as well.

Paypal offers a truly revolutionary service in that it covers a variety of payment options and is truly completely secure. While it may be easier to hack into a merchant’s system records and uncover scores of customers’ payment details, it is probably a bit trickier to hack into Paypal. Simply because financial transactions make up that company’s sole focus, its security is very likely top-notch and on par with a bank web site.

So customers can now use Paypal as the channel to make purchases on several major airlines with a credit card (including frequent flyer rewards cards), debit cards, bank account transfer or Paypal account funds. And it’s about time. With more than 60 million active accounts in 190 markets and 17 currencies around the globe, it appears Paypal is not going anywhere any time soon. And since it’s here to stay, it’s high time these companies stood up and recognized Paypal for the financial giant that it is. And to think it was once primarily regarded only as a side arm of eBay. That’s so late 90’s.
