Best Way To Open A Lesotho PayPal Account in Nigeria

Introduction:

There are two available options when it comes to sending payments on PayPal. We have the option to send as friends and family and another one to send as goods and services. While the friends and family payment option charges little or no transaction fee, the goods and services payments take higher charges. Apart from the fact that FnF (friends and family) payments take little or no charges, They also go smoothly without placing funds on pending balance, unlike GnS (goods and services) payments where they place payments received on hold for thorough reviews.

Everyone loves using PayPal accounts which have both the FnF and GnS features, so you can decide to make or receive payments with the one you desire depending on the kind of transaction you want to make. But unfortunately, most countries don’t have both features. Instead, they can only send as Goods and services (GnS) i:e UAE PayPal account.

Most countries that support FnF and GnS features are European countries like the US, UK, Canada etc which have their own issues if you are using them from Nigeria.

While most African countries and the likes which give you breathing space to use them without VPN only have the Goods and services functions unless for a few which got both. e.g South Africa PayPal, Lesotho etc got both functions.

These two countries above are the most used ones in Nigeria as of today and you might be wondering why you need to choose Lesotho over South Africa if you are searching for an FnF PayPal account which works fine in Nigeria.
