Facebook users are getting a new way to pay eachother with Messenger. Well, actually an old one \u2013 starting today, people in the US will be able to pay eachother using PayPal.<\/p>\n
To set up PayPal, just initiate a payment like you normally would, by tapping the \u2018+\u2019 button and then selecting the green payments button.<\/p>\n
Once you enter the amount and tap \u2018pay\u2019 you\u2019ll have the option to select your payment method, which now includes PayPal in addition to debit cards. If you\u2019ve already used Messenger for payments before, you can just tap \u2018change\u2019 to switch things up.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s a nice option to have if you\u2019re already used to making transactions via PayPal, or if you simply prefer not giving your debit card information to Facebook.<\/p>\n
The feature is currently only active for iOS users in the US, but will arrive on Android \u2018soon.\u2019 No word on when it might arrive on the desktop or for other regions, but we imagine it\u2019s just a matter of time.<\/p>\n
