Default Paying by Paypal

I know its not exactly a product suggestion, but just wondering do DV accept paypal payments online, or plan to in the future?

Hi conor_j
Sorry for the late reply.



We can indeed accept Paypal but unfortunately not through the portal of the DV247.com retail website.
If you, or any other customer would like to call our sales team on 01708 771950, and request your item(s) as a direct telephone order, we can administrate all that is necessary for you to pay by PayPal (Please be aware however that there is a 5% additional surcharge to cover the fees that PayPal charge, plus the extra layer of administration involved at our end too).


Hope this is of help to yourself and other members.
Best regards
Ed Jack

Useful info. I always use Paypal when possible. It's so easy to manage and track payments coming in and out. I think the number of people who use Paypal is not small and is steadily on the increase.

That's fair enough as far as I'm concerned.
I am quite aware and wary of Paypal charges.
I sometimes use my Paypal account to pay for stuff but also use it for receiving US$ affiliate payments. I do not have a professional Paypal account so it is free to receive those payments and free to withdraw to my bank account if the total amount is over $50 (takes a while these days). However, if I sell something on Ebay and want to accept a Paypal payment funded by credit card I have to upgrade my account and pay Paypal a percentage of that payment - not only that though - they will then proceed to take a percentage of all the US$ payments I used to receive for free
So, if I do sell on Ebay I do not accept Paypal unless funded by a bank account - which would mean I could accept the payment without upgrading my account.
But, I've just read some advice about setting up two Paypal accounts, one standard and one pro - see PayPal Fiddle Factor
I might look in to setting up a second Paypal account and make it Pro so I can accept Paypal credit card payments if necessary without affecting my regular Paypal account.
Oh by the way, if you are paying for something in a foreign currency with Paypal do not just blindly accept the Paypal exchange rate for the transaction - your credit card may an very likely will offer a better exchange rate on the transaction. Paypal automatically choose their own exchange rate but you can choose to have oyr credit card calculate the exchange rate by clicking "other funding options"

Sorry I've gone quite a bit off track for this thread, but I do like having a little Paypal rant
