Earn Dollars in South Africa
Overall Satisfaction with PayPal Payments Pro
We provide legal services to clients abroad. It is thus super useful to accept payment via PayPal in American dollars. We can set up the invoice within the PayPal platform and send it directly to the client or download it in PDF format. The client can then pay via card or directly from their PayPal account.
Pros
- Create Invoices.
- Accept Payments.
- Track Payments.
Cons
- There is only two Payment terms.
- PayPal does not accept our local currency.
- We are forced to withdraw any funds received via PayPal to our local bank account.
- Invoicing with custom Invoice numbers to slot onto our accounting system.
- Accepting dollars.
- Connecting to our local internet banking platform.
- PayPal has allowed our local small business to secure international clients and even repeat business.
- The transaction fees are reasonably comparable to traditional "wire transfers".
- Due to our weak local currency, earning in dollars really boosts our cashflow.
We use PayFast to accept local online payments in South Africa. PayFast works well to receive Rands although PayFast does not support invoicing. PayFast does however support recurring payments in the form of a "payment subscription". Payfast has fewer overall features however, this makes the platform design simple and easy to use.
