Well this is the most common question that i see ( As i am from Pakistan ) and almost every Pakistani webmaster like me *or any other webmaster from a country where paypal is yet to come asks this question
HOW CAN I USE PAYPAL ????
There are 2 ways if your country isnt in the paypal list.
1: If you have any relatives in countries like the us , uk etc in which paypal is there , you can ask for there address and sort things out.
2: The other way is to use wrong address ( which i suggest is the worst , worse than no paypal at all ) because if you use faulty address , you are sure to get your account closed sooner or later.
Then what to do if you dont have any relatives that can help you out or you dont want to use the 2nd method.
Well the answer is simple , Dont use paypal at all
Its fair to ask : This is no answer to my question???
To be honest i dont think there is any other way to use paypal than the above two ( if you know any please share )
So what to do now??
Well you can always choose other payment processing options like:
Use a credit card for all payments ( not the best alternative )
Use E-gold (http://www.egold.com ) ( Its is a better choice )
Use Moneybookers (http://www.moneybookers.com)
And many more.
So whats the summary : If your country isnt in the paypal list , well then wait till it comes LOL
Ps. Last time i checked with paypal staff , paypal in pakistan will take atleast 2 years so sit back and do nothing till then :p
IF YOU THINK ANYTHING ABOVE IS INCORRECT PLEASE CORRECT ME . ALSO IF YOU HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS PLEASE DO SHARE.
