I prefer Paypal too, because there are many corrupt postal employees here in our country. There's a high risk your check may get stolen by them if if they cannot encash them. That's how stupid they are.

If you are still a neophyte or a beginner in earning money, I prefer paypal.In my case,before using paypal, the site that I had joined before ave me an option to be paid a check as my payment temporary procesors.If you are going to link your card to paypal so you can withdraw your money time,why not choose paypal.

Hey man the best way to get paid is by credit card,because it is universal accepted and if you donot have credit card then go for Paypal.If you are an Indian user then paypal accept all local banks for account verification but the only problem is to add funds in your paypal account.One thing more paypal has low exchange rate.When i withdraw money from paypal it says 1$=43.40 & and at the same time i withdraw money from my virtual credit credit then it says 44.90

i think paypal, because if you have money on paypal, you could use it online for almost everything.
but in an other way, if you chose check, the money is on your bank, and i think you can send money from your bank to paypal(i'm not sure)

Give me a Paypal payment. It's in my account quicker, and I can withdraw it the same day it arrives with my Paypal debit card or buy goods or services with it immediately.
With a check, I have to wait for the site to cut and mail the check. Usually it takes approx 3-4 weeks after placing the withdraw request, for the check to arrive. Then you have to deposit the check (and hope the funds are really there...disclaimer-I've never received a check from an online company that had a problem, the funds were always available)
If I have a choice, I'll always take Paypal over a check or AlertPay payment.

Well there are a lot of other ecurrencies available other than paypal. but I think it is better if you are paid in paypal.
But some sites will offer western union or check and ofcourse other ecuurencies.

a Check is too expensive with all the processing fee, bank fee, withdrawal fee and other fees ...and it also takes a long time to reach my country. Paypal is definitely better ..

I like PayPal because it usually doesn't take too long for me to get my payment, the affiliate that sent me my paycheck had to make sure that all the orders that earned me money actually went out so I had to wait four months, I definitely like PayPal more than checks.

Personally if you have a verified pay pal account then your best way to go is pay pal every time. Most sites fee's for sending cheques is outrageous and you end up losing quarter of your earnings if not more where as with pay pal there might be a fee but its never as crazy as the one's for the cheques.

Pay Pal all the way for me because it's the safest and most convenient for me. They protect your purchases and in the 5 years of dealing with them I have never had a problem and when I have called to ask a question they are always so friendly with no waiting.
I also like the fact the payment is usually instant so you don't have to wait for a check to arrive and the fee's and all that. The US Pay Pal users are lucky because I hear they have Pay Pal cards and here in Canada you still can't get them.

Surely paypal or alertpay is the best way to be paid when you gain moeny online!!Also ebcause check are really uncomfortable cosnidering that in the majority of cases they will take much time before receive it and in some cass there are also fees related to thesekind payments....so it hink paypal or payment processors in general are really much more comfortable.

I guess that the paypal is the best option ever . You can transfer your cash from it to your fisical account or doo some shoping online , and with the cheks you need to go to bank and doo the usual line to cash it (not recommended).
So paypal 4 ever , as it's comfortable and you can acces it from the comfort of your home computer ;) .

I prefer to be paid via paypal because it is faster, easier and you're saving paper + postage. Via check, it takes longer plus you're wasting paper (trees) and their wasting postage/ink/paper!

Well, PayPal is the OBVIOUS answer! almost no hassle and it is safe! It is better if you have a credit card to redeem the money. I know these days it is not hard to get one. I hope that helped!
