What makes the app unique?
Banks or financial institutions in general have struggled to provide seamless transactions. Many of them have struggled with app issues or have issues related to release of funds. But PayPal promises to offer a secure, and personalized experience. By reducing the complexity aspect, it can be utilised for shopping and retail outlets and also tracks loyalty rewards.
With the global Cryptocurrency Hardware Wallet expected to reach US $58290 million by 2027, PayPal wants to catch the bandwagon and build on its market share in the cryptocurrency market as well. PayPal plans to strengthen its position in the cryptocurrency’s domain as well and will add new features and enhancements going forward.
