A personal PayPal account is an easy way to make online purchases. For example, you'll find it useful when shopping on numerous websites, transferring money to friends for dinner, or even sending a Christmas gift to a loved one. A personal account allows you to do the following:

• Only send payments.
• Pay for your purchases both locally and internationally.
• Online and card fraud protection policies are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Business PayPal accounts are intended for those who want to offer PayPal Canada to their customers as a payment option. There are additional advantages to features such as Express Checkout and granting limited account access to up to 200 employees. Here's what the account makes possible:

• Payment transmission and receipt.
