📋About PayPal

Updated September 16, 2026

PayPal is a digital-payments platform that lets consumers and merchants send, receive, and hold money online, spanning its core wallet, Venmo, and Braintree. Founded in 1998 and headquartered in San Jose, California, PayPal serves hundreds of millions of active accounts. In 2026 it embraced agentic commerce, embedding PayPal checkout inside AI assistants such as ChatGPT through the Agentic Commerce Protocol so users can pay with their PayPal account during agent-driven purchases, plus merchant-facing tools for the same shift.
