Once your account is set up, you can start making payments by entering the recipient's email address or phone number. You can also pay with just a few clicks on websites that have the PayPal logo.

If you're shopping online, you can also use PayPal to pay without entering your financial information. To do this you will need to log into your PayPal account and select the 'pay with PayPal' option at checkout. You will then be prompted to enter your login information and confirm the payment.

## How to create a PayPal account?

You can also use PayPal to pay for goods and services offline by sending payments by text message or using the PayPal app on your mobile device.

## Ways to protect your PayPal account!
A strong password is the first line of defense for your PayPal account. Your password must be at least 8 characters long and include a combination of upper and lower case letters, numbers, and symbols. Avoid using easy-to-guess words like your name or date of birth, or common phrases. PayPal will never ask you for your password, so don't give it to anyone, even if you claim to be from PayPal.

### Steps to login to your PayPal account!
To log into your PayPal account, you will need to visit the PayPal login page. You can access this page by going to www.paypal.com and clicking the "Login" button in the upper right corner of the screen.

* If you are not already logged in, you will be prompted to enter your email address and password.
* If you are already logged in, you will be taken directly to your account overview page. From here, you can view your balance, transactions, and profile information.

### **Add money to your PayPal account! Log in!**
