>>10735237PayPal may be _marginally_ more convenient (for you). You still have to log in and fill out some details. I just don't see how entering those details on a different form is such a showstopper. Even if pulling out my wallet was some sort of heinous ordeal, I could (and did) memorize my numbers.
As a seller, PayPal was not convenient for me. Too much of it is manual. I had to manually transfer money from sales into my bank account. They also regularly disconnected said bank account and it was a real pain to get ahold of somebody who would acknowledge it was disconnected and unblock it from reconnecting.
Plus, I was doing sales on multiple channels. PayPal had some real problems from its legacy of being initially peer to peer. You get one account per e-mail. Everything paid on that e-mail goes into the same account. eBay, Bonanza, forum sales, their card reader, all dump into the same account. Makes it difficult to track where money is coming from.
The only way around that is to set up more e-mails. But they have some technical problems where it confuses multiple accounts. A number of times, I would preorder something on my personal e-mail (PayPal processed a credit card - I didn't even have an established account) and the transaction would show up on my business account and notifications would go to my business e-mail. It just decided the addresses matched up I guess.
Since I was trying to keep my collecting and business selling separate, that was really unhelpful. Sometimes it goes into an unbreakable autologin loop and I can't break out of one account to get into the other. Just weird, unhelpful behavior.
Square has the same one-to-one problem as PayPal but their card reader is far less clunky. Stripe has the ability to use API keys instead of an e-mail as an identifier so it can route stuff correctly.
I really only had PayPal when I did because eBay forced it and then eventually they discarded it anyway so what was the point.
