I personally prefer paypal because you can then use it online to make purchases or cash it through direct deposit to your bank account or credit card.  So I feel you have a few more options with paypal as opposed to a check it's just more convenient. :thumbsup:And you get your cash faster.

I think PayPal is the best.  I've used them a very long time with no issues, and you can get a ppal debit card to use your money instantly and/or at atms everywhere.   :thumbsup: :peace:

I use PayPal and have a free debit card from them that works just like any other MasterCard.

I must say when I first signed up I was thinking check, but Paypal is more convenient.
And beneficial in terms of cashing out on the internet.

It's really up to you whether you want to see the cash or not in your hand.  Perhaps you just want to see the money on the screen, or maybe you might want to actually hold the physical money, but either way, like I said, it's up to you.  I personally use direct deposit instead.  I'd rather have them directly deposit to my bank account so I can use it for other things such as Paypal, Alertpay, etc.  In fact, I think that Direct Deposit might be a little faster in receiving payment?  ;)

If you plan to expand your activity in the PTC, survey or GPT arena, having a PAYPAL and/or Alert Pay account is a necessity.  Many sites only pay to one or the other (or both).

I've been using PAYPAL for years and have been pleased with it.  Wasn't happy when they decided to charge a fee for incoming monies, but many sites (FC particularly) cover that cost by having a mass pay arrangment with PAYPAL so their members are not hit with those fees.

Paypal no brainer!!  Instantly gets sent!

I've used 'em all. Paypal, AlertPay, OK Pay, Liberty Reserve, Check, Direct Deposit, Perfect Money, and Google Checkout.
Doesn't really matter to me as long as I can access my money when I need or want to and that it's safe.
If I could only choose one I guess it would be Direct Deposit. That's the fastest way to get your $ and it's straight to my Checking with no layovers!




Man, Fusion Cash Rocks!

I tried using one of those prepaid debit cards and it was ok but it was the first time and they took 10 dollars off the top for an activation fee or something. So, I would rather have them mail me a check. Does paypal charge you any fees?

I like PayPal--it's faster and i have the debit card as well. I use it for other sites and it is my "stash" for extra cash needs.

I like paypal best.  Its easier for me if I am wanting to purchase something online.  I just let the money go into my paypal account and then use it whenever I am wanted to purchase something online from a site that accepts paypal!

Paypal.  It's faster and you can also transfer funds from paypal to bank accounts as well.  It's an extra step but still faster.

I have used both Paypal and Check. I find Paypal much faster, easier and more convenient.

The purpose of PayPal is to make online purchases and storing money EASIER and SAVER. I like to go with Paypal due to security and theft reasons. The internet can't be trusted 100%, and you must always be aware and be cautious when spending money over the internet. However, using PayPal requires you having a bank account to transfer funds, so many people think that in the end it's the same thing as using cash check. But I would HIGHLY recommend PayPal. I don't like to type in my bank and credit card information over the internet.

Paypal is great to have for shopping on line, but takes to long to get it to your bank acct.

Paypal, definitely...cause you don't have to wait to get a check in the mail, but since this is Fusioncash you're going to be waiting awhile to get paid anyway. I'm not complaining, just saying.

Personally I like paypal better because when you are waiting for a check to come in the mail it seems you are just in limbo, you never know what is going on with it and you don't paypal either but I personally think its a safer bet than waiting for a check to come in the mail.  It takes me a few more days because once my money gets to paypal then I have it transferred to my checking but have been doing online earnings like that for years so am used to the process.  Guess either one is just a matter of personal preference. :wave:

After seeing how satisfied many of you are using paypal, I just may consider setting an account up to at least try it. It sounds faster and more efficient, thanks.

Before I saw this post I thought I would ask for a check but now it seems like PayPal is the way to go.

I have done all methods of cash out, but when I closed my checking account I went to PayPal. Pretty much everyone accepts PayPal for online payments, so it works for me!

A check is better. for sure

I would consider PayPal since it's safer and faster, paycheck takes too long, and sometimes can get lost in the mailing process.

I haven't cashed out yet but I think I'm going to just have a check sent to me. I get more satisfaction from a check lol

Id say look at it this way, if you want your money in about a day set up a paypal account and use that to cashout and you will have it within a day of the cashout period but if you want cash in hand you would have to wait for the check in the mail and you could use your bank to cash it free or go somewhere where they charge 1% check cashing and get cash in hand. Id honestly say paypal and have a card sent to you to use on your account. That way you can use it when it hits your account.

I think that paypal is the best way. A check can get lost in the mail and paypal is a very secure system. So go with paypal for sure!!

I use paypal for my cashout and I like to use it. I can transfer it to my bank if I want or leave it in the paypal account for online purchases. It works for my needs.
