Great option for inside business sales for small businesses!

The experience I have with PayPal is always amazing. They're safe, reliable, and I wouldn't choose any other software to manage my in store transactions.

PROS

PayPal here was always a tool I used before I grew my small business. It offered simple, easy to use and understand mechanics that some merchant transaction softwares didn't offer. I love how easy it is to use, and especially how quick it is. Most of all, I love how I can incorporate this into my already existing PayPal Business account to always manage receipts, invoices, and history.

CONS

I dislike the amount per swipe percentile. Each business has their fees, whilst there's others out there who are cheaper to use.

Quickest Way to Accept Payment with Cards

PayPal Here makes it super simple to accept payment from my customers. I like that it's linked directly to my PayPal account and that funds are available immediately. Before I started using PayPal Here, I would have customers ask to Cash.app me funds or send them via Venmo. The downside to this was that it wasn't necessarily professional and I had to wait for funds to be transferred to my bank account.

PROS

PayPal Here is by far the quickest way to accept payment from customers with credit/debit cards. I'm particularly referring to the speed in which funds are available for spending. It's very simple to swipe the customer's card or enter their payment information and then almost instantly have access to those funds. I the earlier days of PayPal Here, I was one of the fortunate people that received a free card reader. This came in handy as all I had to do was plug it into my iPad and simply swipe the customer's card. The app is somewhat customizable, too. For example, you can specify whether or not you want to require a customer's signature for certain purchase amounts. Also, the app integrates with PayPal Inventory Management as an added convenience if desired.

CONS

The only thing I really dislike about the app is the fact that I am charged a higher percentage on the fee if I manually input the customer's credit/debit card information as opposed to just swiping their card. Sometimes I feel that this is an unfair thing - especially in cases where the customer's card is not properly reading when swiped in the card reader. Lastly, PayPal no longer provides free card readers (unless you're a new user). So, if you need a new, updated card reader you'll have to pay for it.

Reason for choosing PayPal Zettle

I already had a PayPal account, so PayPal Here definitely was the easiest way to go.

Reasons for switching to PayPal Zettle

Cash.app wasn't a professional way of accepting payment and it didn't really create a legitimate record as far as business deals were concerned. Plus, I had to wait for money to be transferred to my bank before having access to the funds.

Used to be great

CONS

Unfortunately they changed ownership over lockdown and we found the new system to be really terrible. It used to be great but unfortunately the table management was ruined and became unusable for restaurants.

A weird program in the recording

I was unable to benefit from the program because there were complications in retrieving the password, and we hope to solve and address some of the errorsRetrieving the password is linked to the mobile number and the official mail, because a person has many work tasks and may forget the passwordSuppose a person has money and he dies or forgets the password. Will he lose all the money? Some party to the financial transactions must deal with this regard in some way.

PROS

I hear people talking about it, and some do not know it. We hope to know the program in a simplified way that supports all languages, including Arabic.

CONS

I registered in this program with my mobile number, name, and email, and I forgot the password. I tried to recover the password, but I did not find any benefit for me. I am afraid of this program in financial transactions.
