Pawmacist 💎🕊️ (@pawmacist) reportedEveryone celebrates companies like Stripe, PayPal, Revolut, and Cash App. We trust them with our money, recommend them to friends, and build businesses on top of them. But the moment a Nigerian builds something similar, many of us become the first to predict its failure. Why? Is it because the product is bad, or because we have conditioned ourselves to believe that anything built abroad is automatically better than what is built at home? That mindset is a sign of a person being mentally poor and limited. Flutterwave was built by Nigerians. Paystack was built by Nigerians and went on to become one of Africa's most successful fintech companies. These companies didn't become successful because everyone believed in them from day one. They succeeded because they kept building, improving, and earned the trust of millions. Supporting Nigerian innovation does not mean lowering our standards. It does not mean ignoring security concerns or refusing to criticize poor decisions. It simply means judging our own companies by the same standards we use for foreign companies—not by a harsher one. Constructive criticism builds companies. Blind condemnation kills them. There is another challenge we rarely talk about. Too many founders are racing to build the same thing. One payment app succeeds, and suddenly everyone wants to build another payment app. One crypto exchange grows, and dozens more appear. One digital bank trends, and everyone wants to launch another. Innovation is not about seeing what works and copying it. Innovation is about solving problems that nobody else is solving. Nigeria and Africa need builders who will create the infrastructure that powers the next generation of startups. We need breakthroughs in healthcare, education, agriculture, logistics, manufacturing, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, blockchain infrastructure, and countless other sectors that remain underserved. The companies that shape the future won't necessarily be the ones that copy today's winners. They will be the ones bold enough to create tomorrow's opportunities. So before we dismiss another Nigerian startup, ask yourself: If we don't support our own builders, who will? And if every founder is building the same product, who will build the future? The next global technology company can come from Nigeria. But only if we create a culture that rewards originality, demands excellence, and believes that world-class innovation can be built here.

Daniel Michael (@lordugande) reportedI opened a PayPal account through paga. I was asked to submit a verification ID, which I did. Next thing I saw was that my account has been permanently deactivated. Why. We thought there won't be issues opening PayPal through paga. That was what you told us... @paga

Noyel Sebastian (@noyelaniyara) reported@PayPal @PayPal Seeing multiple users report the same issue here. Still no response! My money is now blocked (“on hold”, in ur language) for 180 days, with no clear way to appeal, no human support. Is this how you handle customers? When will this be resolved? 2/2

TheGrindStream (@TheGrindStream) reportedHey yall. @_CinnamonTea_ is having a tough time as @PayPal is giving her trouble so if anyone can help her buy either commissions or donating money for her event this weekend its very important to her and I wanna help any way i can while paypal fixes their mess up.

Vanesh Mali (@vaneshmali) reportedInitiated the withdraw request. BuyMeACoffee takes huge cut from this money. Platform fee: 5% Payment processing fees: typically around 2.9% + 0.30% per transaction. Fix transaction fee: $2 ( sum of fees per tips / donation received ) So, in my case $15 - $3.19 = $11.81 that's what I will get. PayPal charges little less that Buy Me a Coffee. So PayPal is best.

🏴 Dan K🇺🇸 (@Dannykraus9) reported@GraemeBandeira No problem at all I’ll PayPal the cash before you send
-
The Tech Q (@lutefiskguy) reported@deobfuscations A faster way to send money between accounts I own. I can pay instantly with PayPal but not XMoney. This means I will store a bit less in the service as moving money is either slow or costs something. 1 business day is probably fine for this but everyone loves instant.
-
James (@WATERMELL0NE) reported@airbagg3d Yeah see you can claim that, youd be right about some like PayPal, HOWEVER when its been proven that the people making the ganes and designs and **** TERRIBLE are ******* activists its hard to blame someone else
-
CryptoD₿S (@DbsCrypto) reportedYour donations can be sitting in your account and still not be your money. The moment a creator needs a payment platform to approve their identity, business status, or withdrawal before they can touch what supporters already sent, the problem is bigger than PayPal. That’s custody risk. Creators are taught to obsess over discovery and conversion. But payout rails can choke the business just as fast. You can earn the money. The platform can still hold the keys. I keep coming back to the same point: if you need permission to access your own revenue, you don’t own the business. Owned audience matters. Owned distribution matters. But owned payout rails are part of the same fight. Otherwise “getting paid” is just another feature someone else can turn off.

The Tech Buzz (@tbuzzdaily) reportedRejected: PayPal's board just said no to a $53B buyout offer at a 28% premium Stripe and Advent International, with Block contributing part of a combined $17B in equity, offered $60.50 per share for PayPal, valuing it above $53B, a 28% premium to PayPal's July 14 closing price. Roughly $50B in bank financing backed the bid. PayPal's board rejected the offer about five days later as inadequate, reportedly holding out for closer to $70 a share, with talks said to be continuing. The structure would have kept PayPal intact, with Stripe and Advent owning it on an equal basis. PayPal's market cap had fallen to roughly $36B this year, down nearly 90% from its 2021 peak near $360B. This is a live negotiation, not a completed deal. Stripe buying PayPal would combine two of the largest payment networks in the world, but a rejected opening bid is a normal stage in a process that could take weeks to resolve, or fall apart entirely.

ARUN KUMAR SINGH (@ARUNKUMAR711994) reportedbeen limited without any clear reason, especially when there has been no transaction activity on the account. This limitation is causing me significant problems. I need to add my PayPal account details to several freelancing platforms so that I can receive payments for my work.
