In light of PayPal recently reaching the 200 million active user mark, we thought we would go over some of the defining facts and features of the world’s most popular mobile wallet.

The merchant’s advantages

PayPal has certainly made their mark in the French market, with the payment method coming second only to credit cards in usage. This is surely due to the 5 million active PayPal users in France. The popularity of e-wallets in France was recently pointed out in an annual study conducted by the FEVAD which showed that 42% of the French have made at least one purchase using an e-wallet. Considering the numbers, offering certain e-wallets as payment methods on your e-commerce site is something to give more than a bit of thought.
