We operate a global, two-sided network that connects hundreds of millions of merchants and consumers. We help merchants and consumers connect, transact, and complete payments, whether online or in person. PayPal is more than a connection to third‑party payment networks; we provide proprietary payment solutions accepted by merchants that enable the completion of payments on our platform on behalf of our customers. We offer customers the flexibility to use their accounts to purchase and receive payments, transfer and withdraw funds, and exchange funds safely with merchants using a variety of funding sources, including bank accounts, PayPal or Venmo balances, brand‑named credit products, debit cards, certain cryptocurrencies, or stored value products such as gift cards and eligible credit‑card rewards. PayPal, Venmo, and Xoom also make it safer and simpler for friends and family to transfer funds to each other. For merchants we provide an end‑to‑end payments solution with authorization, settlement capabilities, instant access to funds, and payouts. We also help merchants connect with customers, process exchanges and returns, and manage risk. We enable consumers to engage in cross‑border shopping and merchants to extend their global reach while reducing the complexity and friction involved in cross‑border trade. Job Summary
