How to Create a Verified PayPal Account in Ghana Without Stress

In this article, i will love to share with you a method to actually create a PayPal account in Ghana for free. From a previous content which was why Ghana is not on PayPal whitelisted countries, we established reasons why Ghana is not on PayPal. After most of my friends read the article, the question was so what can we do to enjoy PayPal too? Because it didn't seem fair to Ghanaians. I took the liberty to look into a few tricks to help you obtain a fully verified PayPal account here in Ghana.

Avoid using proxies, Tor browser, IPs from another country, or public Wi-Fi areas to sign into your PayPal account. If you must use a VPN (Virtual Private Network), use a dedicated VPN source. Make sure you use only one device to sign in to your PayPal Account always.

What is the ideology behind this method?

The idea is you can be a Kenyan staying in Ghana and that does not prevent you from using your Kenyan PayPal account in Ghana. Simple as that. I bet you thought I was going to mention some complicated formulas.

What do I need to create my fully verified PayPal account in Ghana?

• Your Real Full Name
• Your Real Email Address
• Your Real Ghanaian Phone Number
• Your Real Date Of Birth
• Your Real Addresses (Street address of your home or business location)
  
• Your Real ID number (Could be any one of these: Driver’s / NHIS / Voter’s) 
• Your Real Town Or Region
• A debit card from UBA, GT Bank and a few international banks. But I recommend a UBA Africard or GT Bank Visa Card

Note: You can easily withdraw funds from PayPal with UBA Africard. 

Before we get to how to create the account, there is something you should know. There are two types of PayPal accounts:

• Personal Account

With this account, you can shop in your country and around the world from your computer or on your mobile - all without sharing your financial info with the sellers.

• Business Account

With this account, you can accept payments and send invoices to your customers. It’s easier and more secure to sell to anyone, anywhere, and any time.
