How to use PayPal to receive money even if your country is not supported

by Tamal Anwar on January 4, 2009

PayPal is the fast, easy way to send and receive money  in Bangladesh or internationally. Paypal have a serious role in any professional bloggers success. Paypal is free to use and you only need to have a bank account and a credit card to have total control over your account. With paypal you can,

  • Send and receive money worldwide
  • Do online shopping
  • Accept credit/ debit cards
  • Use it as a payment method

There are advertiser programs like Google adsense who pays via bank check but to get a check you have to wait for your money to grow until it reaches $100. With my experience and which I learned from other bloggers, it takes over a year to reach $100 from adsense. And there are also other delivery problems.

80% of the advertisers don’t pay via bank checks and if they pay, they don’t pay you in your country like Bangladesh.

So moving to PayPal may open up lots of opportunities just like it helped me to Earn Money Online from Bangladesh.

The bad news is that paypal is not available in Bangladesh but soon they will be here.

So how to use PayPal in Bangladesh or in my country?

PayPal will be available in Bangladesh soon so does that means you should stop blogging now? Of course not and I didn’t stopped yet. An easy way to use paypal is to get help from your any reliable relative who is in other country.

You may have lots of relatives in USA, UK, Canada or any other country that supports paypal. Just use their paypal account to receive money, if they don’t have any account, tell them to create one or help them to create it.

They have to add their bank account and credit card to have access in the account. When you sign up for any advertiser, use the paypal email address and every time you will get paid to the paypal account.

Your relative will then withdraw the amount from paypal to their bank account and then they will send it to your address via any money transfer service like western union.

  • You need to have a good relationship with your foreign relative to do this job
  • Amount can be withdrawn to bank when a valid bank account is being added
  • You can spend the money online if the account has a credit/ debit card added
  • It takes 5 business days to send money from paypal to bank account inside USA and takes up to 7 days outside of USA
  • Bank and paypal will charge an amount of each currency conversation like USD to TK or GBP to USD
  • You can send and receive money with different accounts of paypal for free
  • You don’t have to own a bank account, just your foreign relative will have to own one
  • There may be different rules and services among different countries of PayPal

If you have any further questions or faced some difficulties, ask for my help anytime.

Due to some rules of Bangladesh bank, Paypal cannot expand their business to bangladesh. It is time to change the old rules to the new era. ………………… Hoping paypal will come to bangladesh soon.

@Topu, E-commerce and online money is not possible in Bangladesh (Till now) so PayPal can’t do anything. This is why you can’t send or receive money with a credit card online.

India is far more advanced in this field because of the submarin cable since 1990. BD had a chance to install it then for low cost. So today there would lower call rates, faster broadbands and clear dish/cable lines.

India is 25 years advanced in IT comparing to BD. This is time to change, another war against old school traditions. We all have to take those important positions for better BD.

@M. R. Sohel, I use my uncle’s PayPal and it’s his name, his account but I access it from BD. I’m using it for a year and had no problem.

If the account is owned by someone living in India, then don’t hesitate to use it from BD. Avoid proxy because it may lead you to a violation.

If they take any unwanted actions, then email them that you’re using your relative’s paypal account and he have given permission to you.

Dear Sohel,

I don’t think there’s a reason to freeze your account by paypal. Paypal wont pay attention on the silly issues. They only take care of money when you want to cashout, then it asks for a supported bank account.

Just make one think sure, if your country is India (in Paypal) then if you want to add any credit card (for the reason of your previous credit card has expired) don’t use any card that has been issued from any bangladeshi bank.

Well, this is a method that everyone knows. However, is there any other ways to receive money in your paypal without relying on others accounts?

@Nick Rodriquez, Because my country is not supported by PayPal, this is why I have to depend on other account. Using any other methods means cheating the system which may ban your account and you might lose your money.

If you are an Unverified user of Paypal, they will limit your sending limit by $0.00 that means you cannot send money to other Paypal account that’s why you cannot buy anything with Paypal or cant make it cash from them who will allow you to send your account money to their account and they’ll give you cash.

So an unverified member cannot take any advantage from Paypal bcoz an unverified account is of no use.

But I overcame the problem and be able to limit my account sending limit to $2000/year = 1,40,000 bangladeshi taka. Enough for me. I can buy anything using this. Can have eBay business and moreover can make it cash from service who will receive my money sent to their account and give me cash. not less than DBT 70.00/dollar.

Though my account is unverified I can do all these things.

for proof go to http://www.ashikurrahman.info/paypal-in-bangladesh-make-a-paypal-account.html

I’ll provide you a guide to do this for $5 only. mail me at ashik_suza@yahoo.com if you need that.

Hey boss, you have a serious problem.

1. Paypal is not supported in BD so you cannot use a fake paypal address.
2. Even if you have a credit card, it won’t work with paypal.

Use the above methods and get a help from a person who has a paypal account.

it is great disappointment for us that we do not have paypal access.
our present govt. commited to open ecommerce ASAP. but they told bangladesh will enter ecommerce within 2013.

as per i know international online payment gateway is forbidden here for only one permission. my question is if govt really want to do that why should wait for 2013?

Well, you forgot one thing.
Your relatives that will open an account on their name, will have then PAY TAXES on your money they receive in their paypal account. I don’t know who would be willing to do so, or they should be too good relatives. Or maybe they should be so dummies not to know about it. Anyway they will find out when IRS will knock on their door.

Yeah.. and this is why my pesky, so called relative takes a cut each time withdrawing the money.. again the bank, where I receive the fund, take their cut. That means I’m paying taxes to two Govt.(s) + twice the currency conversation charge.. but when you are earning that much, it doesn’t matters any more.
