Nischala R
Payroll Manager
4.0

Nischala R.: Hi. My name is Nischala. My job title is Payroll Manager and Admin, and my company size is 140 hairstylists. It is a franchisee of a hair salon. And I rate four out of five to the PayPal, and five is the highest. So I use PayPal as a payer as well as the receiver. I am pretty active volunteer, so we receive PTO payments from the school community. We receive the... I do some kind of Christmas gift card for bus driver, those kinds of things. So I am at the receiver ends also, and most of the invoices, what we receive for the hair salon industry, we have an option of PayPal payment. So for my professional payment work, we use PayPal as a payer, one of the option for payment. I feel that it doesn't have the login problem in the sense that forgot password is not required. We can log in as one time code, which has made my life easy in the sense that I do not download apps and so the login issue has been taken care. And whenever I make the payment, I see the options of do you want to pay by PayPal balance and do you want to pay by the bank account, which is connected to the PayPal and also the credit card, which person might have with the PayPal account. So I like the connectivity issue. We don't have to remember the password, we don't have to download any app, and it has the internal options for the payment. I know that we have lots of options for the payment nowadays. One thing which I don't like, when it gives me the first option, do you want to pay by the PayPal balance, I do not know the amount, what is in the PayPal. So I know that if I have $50 and I am buying something $100, that $50 can be paid by PayPal and $50 via the bank account connected. But I really want the amount which is in the PayPal balance to be visible without going through the app or clicking so many options.
