Temos o prazer de anunciar a nossa mais recente característica: Pagamentos via PayPal. Pode agora adicionar crédito à sua conta através de transferência de fundos de uma conta PayPal.
Embora qualquer cliente possa utilizar o PayPal para financiar a sua conta, os novos clientes terão ainda de se inscrever utilizando um cartão de crédito. Poderá utilizar o PayPal a partir de então.
Isso em parte porque ainda não temos a capacidade de transferir fundos automaticamente do PayPal. Se pretende pagar apenas através do PayPal, terá de se assegurar de que tem crédito suficiente na sua conta Linode para cobrir a sua próxima fatura. Caso contrário, nosso sistema tentará cobrar qualquer saldo remanescente do cartão de crédito que você tem em arquivo.
Para começar a utilizar o PayPal basta iniciar sessão no seu Linode Manager e ir para o separador Conta -> Fazer um Pagamento.
Aproveite!

PayPal would be nice, but automatic payments are a must have! PayPal has a “recurring payment” scheme for that. Looking forward to seeing support for that!
Why not switch the whole system to Stripe?
Well, who say we can’t use a virtual credit card?
But this is definitely something better than AWS.
+1 for support of recurring payments using PayPal.
I’m located in France so my bank take a fee on all non-EUR payments made using my credit card.
Yeah, this is what I waiting for since 3 years ago. Good job!
@Ed What exactly would that achieve? They already accept Credit Card payments. PayPal is a completely seperate platform and doesn’t integrate with Stripe – they have nothing to do with each other.
I guess at this point the rumor you weren’t taking PayPal because your TOS allows things banned by PayPal was false. If that was the case, woudn’t CloudFlare have been banned from PayPal a lot sooner because they allow things not allowed by Linode’s TOS?
However, I take it I cannot yet use PayPal Subscription to keep my Linode paid up?
Will there come a point when I can use only PayPal, and get my debit card number removed from your systems?
@William That’s the first I’ve ever heard of that rumour and I’ve been a customer and active member of the Linode community since 2005. My understanding for Linode not accepting PayPal has always been purely a business decision. PayPal has an incredibly bad reputation for not offering businesses any real protection. PayPal has a very long and checkered history for suspending accounts and holding onto large amounts of money with little to no recourse available for businesses to try to overturn their decision or recover their funds.
I’d say Linode is still requiring new accounts to sign up with a credit card as a safety and verification measure in an effort to mitigate the risks of fraud. It also serves as a backup payment method when they run billing in the event that your account doesn’t have enough credit on it to cover an invoice. If you don’t want your credit card to be charged, it’s simple enough to just do a manual payment with PayPal to add credit to your account before invoices are generated.
Finally, what was delaying you guys from offering PayPal as a payment processor since the start? Transaction fees?
Thanks for bringing it.
Yeah, this is what I waiting for since 3 years ago. Good job!
wow great , this is what I waiting for since 4 years ago. great job thanks .
i still have not a credit card, fully support using paypal will be awesome!
You guys should create a uservoice for people to post ideas to…it would be funner than a forum and it makes customers feel more heard, at least I think so… cheers!
That’s a good idea! In the meantime please feel free to send your suggestions to feedback@linode.com as well, we read everything that goes into there.
This is awesome!!!
Buenas quiero comprar VPS , pero no puedo por que solo tengo cuenta Paypal
Por que no aumentan el sistema de pago por paypal, tal como lo hace digital oceam, el medio de pago es mucho mas rapido.
Please my request is please allow new user to sign up pay using paypal .. so thats is better and great if linode teams .. make this happen .
