Paypal 2022 : Africa countries list that do not receive money

Most of Africa’s Paypal accounts are restricted to receive payments

A good number of teleworkers or professionals have serious difficulties in receiving Paypal payments although the service has opened its activity to African countries. Paypal still indicates the Payments received menu. The surprise is that you cannot receive payments with your account because it is a restricted account.

The restrictions of the American online payments company hit the countries of the continent much more. The platform is an alternative to payment by check or credit card. It is used as a means of payment on e-commerce sites and accepts transfers between people. This last means of payment has seen a breakthrough in the world of online work where the majority of African online wordkers find it difficult to be paid by the paypal link.
