I don't have a moneybookers account. I remembered I encounter some error when I tried to sign up for it months ago. Also I know it needs credit card to verify. Money bookers may work just like PayPal but I prefer PayPal more. I can be used unverified although your best bet is to get verified, of course. Has anybody told MyLot Philippine users can be paid through PayPal yet? I'm far from payout but I'd really prefer it if I can add my PayPal account here soon.

Just use the email address you use to sign up with Paypal. It is the same ID you'll give anyone, like MyLot to receive payments. Your sign up email address with paypal is the same email address you use to sign in.

I did! :) I sent a message to mylot admin about Paypal Philippines a few days ago and here's what they replied. "I have attempted to send test payments to users in Phillipines and I am still unable to send funds to those accounts. I realize you are able to withdraw to visa/debit card, but as of now, we are unable to send funds to you. Phillipine accounts are only able to send funds out, not receive funds." - mylot_payments So, that means that Philippine Paypal users will still have to wait until further notice of mylot admin that about payments in paypal for Philippine users. As for now, we have no choice but to use Moneybookers. It is actually not that expensive because if you withdraw your money straight to your bank account (Philippines), they only charge a fee of $2.53 per withdrawal. :) Hope this helps.

Paypal can only send money.... but it cannot receive payments from other sources. Please check it out.

No, Sutan74. PayPal Philippines is now fully functional. This is why the whole Philippine PayPal community is so excited about it!

The money processor chosen by mylot to use is moneybookers and so even if we can already receive payment thru PayPal, it would not be from mylot unless of course if mylot would also include PayPal as payment processor but I don't think mylot would do that. If PayPal charges a minimum of $5 for any transaction and requires credit card, I think moneybookers is still better as it charges only 1.80 euro or about $2.50 and credit card is not a requirement.
