    I usually use paypal. I am not 100% comfortable with some sites knowing my credit card data, and not knowing if they store it, or what they do with it.

    The reason I like paypal is that it is quick and easy, and right now they are offering you cashback! I have over $10 cashback which is a nice perk!

    Visa is my 2nd option, but if it comes down to a choice between paypal and visa, ill always do paypal.

    I think pay pal is the best it's a lot safer than putting your credit info online being as it can easily be hacked and stolen. But there are some sites that don't offer pay pal as a payment method.

    Putting out your credit card details on just any site is just looking for trouble. I would suggest going with Paypal as they are quick,easy and convenient to use. There are some sites like Amazon though that don't accept credit cards which basically means using your visa or mastercard. If you don't trust a site rather buy from somewhere else.

    My experience has always been positive with Paypal. They have a very serious management and offer the possibility to link your credit card. This feature greatly extends the range of activity, and opens the door to the vast majority of online shops. My advice is to start with small purchases, limited amounts, and do the test. Of course there are opinions that focus on the negatives, but there isn't perfect system. You have to choose the one that's most comfortable and suits your shopping needs. There are multiple "virtual wallets" with which you can experience also.

    Paypal is my favorite too. Transaction over the internet has always made me nervous. With paypal I don't have to worry. I have been doing this for the last couple of years and have had no unpleasant experiences.

    I always use PayPal, it's the easiest and quickest way to shop online and it uses little charges.
    I am using their services for 4 years now and I haven't got any problem with them since then, this is definetely a wise choice and I encourage you all to try it

    I always run with PayPal. I'd rather have one site potentially store my credit/debit card information than going to multiple sites and putting the same info in each time. It just saves me time and I've never had any unpleasant experiences with them.

    Paypal definitely! I once used my credit card to purchase an item online from a gaming site and in just hours my credit card was hacked $250 worth. Trying to get the money back was a nightmare because the site where it was used didn't want to cooperate. With Paypal its very easy to dispute a charge. Once you file a complaint they get back to you within the day and update you as to the status at least everyday. I've not had a bad experience with them in the 3 years I have been actively using it for online purchases. I also use Paypal when I work online and transferring the money I earned to my local bank is really simple as well.

    Agreed. I get paid from my Etsy shop through PayPal, so they let me use that balance and will pull from my bank account if there's anything not fully covered by my PayPal balance when ordering online. If a website doesn't let me pay with PayPal, I do use my debit card. It's a Mastercard and I've never found a website that doesn't take it.

    I still prefer making transactions through Paypal. I never had any problems with Paypal even before. Plus, I am assured that it's safe and secured.

    I would suggest that you just use Paypal if you intend to buy stuff online, it's safe and you don't get to expose your credit card details. They also block your purchase or account if you used a different IP other than the one you usually use when you buy stuff.

    Paypay is probably the best option because it is fast and easy. Paying through your bank account takes time, you have to fill out your bank account details. I've never had a problem using Paypal. I have money in my Moneybookers account so I'd like to use that in the future.

    Amazon, Ebay, Yuvastyle and Jabong are the sites where you can pay through your credit card, net banking, etc. These sites are most familiar and trusted one. You can read the reviews of such on web. They have awesome collection of clothes, accessories and much more.

    Paypal is the very specific system for online payment. It is most efficient and easiest and supported by nearly all the online sellers. And credits are store specialists. SO for online, I vote for paypal.

    I like Paypal the most, but Visa is accepted at more sites and your credit card probably offers some protection in case you buy from a site that states no refunds. Your card will probably allow you a refund if you file a claim within a few months of purchase. If you have a reward card, even better. I do like paypal if you just have your bank account. It's quick and reliable.

    I have never had a problem with Paypal. I think it's a fast and efficient service. I know there are people who hate Paypal and would never use it but I don't understand why. I would like to use Moneybookers more often as I have money in my Monkeybookers account.
