DR.JOE (@only_music_joe) reported@AskPayPal Hi Support Team, I am currently traveling abroad and urgently need assistance accessing my account. While trying to log in, I was prompted to reset my password. However, every time I attempt to do so, the process gets stuck with the following error message: “We’re having trouble making sure it’s you.” Because I am currently out of my home country, I cannot easily call your phone support. Please DM me so I can share it securely and verify my identity. Could you help me reset my password manually? Thanks a lot

AlchemyJ (@AlchemyJ_io) reported$PYPL PayPal — While the reported proposal highlights deep-value interest in PayPal's consumer ecosystem, actual execution remains highly uncertain due to integration complexity and regulatory hurdles, leading analysts to advise against chasing the rally. PayPal shares surged 17% (trading around $55, down from their 2021 all-time high of $310) following reports of a $53 billion buyout proposal. The offer features $50 billion in secured financing, with Stripe and Advent taking equal 50% stakes. The strategic objective is connecting Stripe's merchant-side back-end tech with PayPal's consumer front end, including Venmo and 439 million active users. Wall Street remained skeptical as the stock did not reach the full 28% premium implied by the offer, and analysts at William Blair maintained a "market perform" rating. #Tech #FinTech

🗡️COPAN🔱@🇯🇵🇺🇦⭐️🇺🇦🇲🇩🇹🇼🇳🇷🇬🇱🤘 (@nankaufufucopan) reported@unnuovoinizio1 @antoninaodesssa @tatyanaodesssa I attempted to send money via PayPal. However, as I mentioned before, transfers from Japan result in an error. This has been happening for some time. It is a problem unique to Japan and serves as one of the barriers to support for Ukraine from the Japanese people. Are there any other ways to send money?

⚔️ XRP Avengers ⚔️ (@XRP_Avengers) reportedRipple's CEO just explained why #XRP exists in under 2 minutes no jargon: Venmo can't send to PayPal, even though PayPal owns Venmo. That's how broken our payment networks are. Now scale that to sending money overseas: slow, expensive, and it can vanish for weeks. Ripple's fix: sell the tech to banks worldwide. 4 second settlement, fractions of a penny, anywhere on Earth. Customers don't care it runs on XRP. They just care that it works.

lil retard (@comic) reported@BitcoinTeacher_ You can simply send Venmo cashapp or PayPal then. Your use case isn’t a problem that exists. You live at home with your mom. “Omg I can send $10 across the world at any time!! Technology???!!”

Anwar (@anwarbaksh) reportedI helped a client grow from $250K to $2M ARR by transitioning their store from PayPal Buy Now buttons to a full WooCommerce store. Here's the active plugin stack running the site today: Admin Columns Payment Fee Admin Columns Pro Block Emails & Addresses for WooCommerce Cart Abandonment Recovery for WooCommerce Code Snippets Duplicate Page Error Log Viewer GTM4WP Invoice Payment Option LiteSpeed Cache ShipStation for WooCommerce WooCommerce WooCommerce PayPal Payments WooCommerce Ship Discounts — custom plugin I built WooCommerce Stripe Gateway WooPayments Wordfence Security WP Mail Logging Code Snippets handles the smaller customizations that don't need dedicated plugin. Maintenance costs less than $200/month. The client has control, flexibility, scalability, and portability. You don't always need an expensive "enterprise" stack to run a serious eCommerce business. Sometimes you just need to build the right stack, and maintain it properly.
