PayPal online payment system does not have anything to announce regarding the possible expansion of its services in Armenia, representative of the company said in response to an inqury abou possible inclusion of Armenia.

The decision to expand company’s services in any country is the result of extensive analysis performed internally at PayPal, he explained. The company looks at every country with the ambition to provide our full set of services there. Nevertheless, PayPal must consider the current operations’ capacity and ability to dedicate the resources necessary towards ensuring any expansion would be successful.

PayPal currently offers “Send Only” functionality in Armenia. 

An online petition was launched in March asking the Armenian authorities to reach an agreement with PayPal to have full set of services in Armenia.
