Funnelish (@funnelish) reportedUpsells for PayPal users don't fail because of the offer. They fail on the extra verification step. The moment there's an extra step, there’s an extra step: → login → 2FA → re-approval You're forcing a new decision, and CVR drops. At 10,000 PayPal orders, even a 2-point lift on a $30 upsell adds up fast. One less step means less time for intent to decay. We introduced PayPal V3 to remove redirects for vault-eligible merchants. Customers accept the post-purchase offer in one click. The upsell checkout for buyers feels like a single flow, not a fragmented process.

VC Intern (@the_vc_intern) reportedPayPal paid approximately $4 billion for Honey in 2020. The browser extension had 17 million monthly users, worked across roughly 30,000 retailers and gave PayPal something it normally reached only at the end of a purchase: influence over what happened before checkout. That position created Honey’s value. Shoppers installed it for discounts, merchants supplied offers to reach those shoppers, and Honey earned money through affiliate attribution when a purchase occurred. Then MegaLag alleged that Honey sometimes replaced creators’ affiliate tracking with its own. PayPal said Honey followed industry practices including last-click attribution, but the explanation did little to stop the reaction. Honey has reportedly fallen from more than 20 million Chrome users to 12 million. Merchant relationships declined from roughly 35,000 to just over 28,000, while its coupon database fell from about 90,000 codes to 50,000. This is what happens when a marketplace flywheel reverses. Fewer users make the product less valuable to merchants. Fewer merchants mean fewer working offers. A weaker product gives the remaining users another reason to uninstall it. Affiliate networks added pressure. Rakuten removed Honey before later reinstating it with new protections, while Impact and Awin also took action. A creator lawsuit has survived PayPal’s attempt to dismiss it, although that is not a finding that PayPal is liable. PayPal bought Honey because it occupied a valuable point between product discovery and payment. The same position became dangerous once shoppers and creators began questioning whose interests the extension served. A $4 billion distribution advantage turned into a trust problem sitting inside 12 million browsers.

Morpheu5 Stock Watcher (@Morpheu5Watcher) reportedPAYPAL $PYPL: WE NAMED THE WRONG CATALYST AND THE STOCK ROSE 39% ANYWAY: PayPal $PYPL at $58.85 (after hours), -$0.22 / -0.37% from Monday's $59.07 close. On June 22 this account put the San Jose payments network on the Deep-Value and Special-Situations Len5 at roughly $42.51, near 8x earnings, and named its catalyst: the 2026 reorganization into three units, with a re-rate to 12-15x as the case. Monday's close sits +$16.56 / +38.9% above that quote. The re-rate arrived. The stated reason did not. Where the move came from: on July 15, privately held Stripe and private-equity firm Advent International made an unsolicited joint offer at $60.50 a share - more than $53B, backed by about $50B of committed bank financing. The stock went $47.37 to $55.52 in one session, +$8.15 / +17.2%. That one day is 49% of everything gained since June. The offer is still unsolicited and unaccepted: no formal response from PayPal, no signed merger agreement, no closing date. The thesis check, on the July 28 print for the June quarter. Total payment volume - the dollars moving through its systems - $486.4B, +10%; net revenue $8.68B, +5%. But transaction margin dollars, what PayPal keeps from each payment after the cost of moving it, rose 1% to $3.9B (+3% ex-interest on customer balances). GAAP EPS $1.25, -3% YoY; adjusted EPS - profit per share with some items stripped - $1.38 vs about $1.28 modeled, still -1% YoY. Volume grew ten times faster than the profit line the cheap-multiple argument rested on. The reorganization is real - announced April 29, live June 2 - and has not reached the profit line. So the multiple moved without the earnings: near 11x on roughly $5.38 of guided full-year adjusted EPS, up from ~8x in June and most of the way to the 12-15x that note wanted - delivered by a bidder. The tape carries the bid's shape too: $1.43 / 2.4% up to the offer, against $11.70 / 19.8% back to the $47.37 paid the day before the news. Len5 read, all six files opened this pass. Quality-Value carries PayPal, twenty-eighth on its ranked list - that style wants a durable franchise at a fair price, and 439M active accounts plus $6.0B of buybacks over twelve months is the durable half; a signed deal at $60.50 retires the question. The Deep-Value and Special-Situations file reads as of August 4 and does not carry it - an unsigned bid is an event you cannot underwrite; a definitive agreement with a close date changes that. Momentum, Growth, and Hypergrowth are no on one fact: mid-single-digit revenue with earnings down is neither a breakout nor growth at any price. Reaccelerating transaction margin moves it. Income is out on mechanics - no dividend, buyback only. One name rising says nothing about a way of reading the market - only about that name. The stock got its re-rate. The reorganization has not earned one, and only one of those two things can be taken back by a press release.
