5.0

Tiffani Z: Hi, my name is Tiffani. I'm the director of operations for a professional development company, and I give PayPal Here a five out of five rating. We use PayPal Here for all of our in-person events to receive payment from our customers for the things that they purchased from us. What I really like about PayPal Here is that it's super simple to use, both as a user and as a customer. There's actually not a lot of steps. It's a very, very simple application and program. So there's not a lot of room for error, which is really nice. One thing I think could be improved with PayPal Here is that the application is so simple you don't get a lot of information from it. So if there were more of a transaction history or perhaps some more user information that you could pull off the app, that would be helpful. I think they keep it simple so that the actual account user information is secure so that other people within the company can use it without seeing financials, but I think there's a few things that they could probably add.
