About PayPal India
PayPal India is run by PayPal Payments Private Limited, and since 1 April 2021 it has not handled domestic payments between Indian buyers and sellers. What it does in India is cross-border: paying international shops, and Indian freelancers and exporters receiving money from overseas clients into an Indian bank account.
So a PayPal payment to an Indian seller failing is not an outage. A login, withdrawal or checkout failure seen by many users at once is.
59-day history
We checked 61 times over the last 59 days — healthy on 59 days. It typically responds in about 0.4s.
Dashed line is its usual 0.4s, measured over the last 14 days. Gaps are days with no timing data.
If PayPal India isn't working
-
Look at the reports first Widespread reports mean a platform problem. Wait for it to clear before you reset your password or change any setting.
-
Check it is not the India restriction Domestic payments inside India stopped on 1 April 2021. A payment to an Indian seller failing is how the service works, not a fault.
-
Login trouble Try a different browser or a private window before resetting anything, and make sure you are on paypal.com.
-
Withdrawal not arriving Look for any notice or request from PayPal in the account. Answer it, or ask about the withdrawal, from the Message Centre with the transaction ID.
-
Get support from inside your account Use Contact Us after logging in; PayPal shows the right message, chat or call option for your issue there. Never share your password or an OTP with anyone who calls you.
Other ways to access PayPal India
-
Use the app if the site is failing The PayPal app and the website can fail separately. If one will not load, try the other before waiting.
-
Ask the client to hold the payment For an invoice that will not process, having the sender wait avoids a duplicate transfer that then needs unwinding.
-
Keep a second route for receiving money Freelancers taking overseas payments are safer with an alternative cross-border option set up in advance.

Questions
The reports from PayPal India users on this page show it. Many reports together mean a PayPal outage that hits login and payments for everyone. For a single failed payment, check for a limit on your account or a problem at the other side's bank.
Check which of two things you have. A real outage breaks login and payments everywhere. But PayPal stopped domestic payments within India on 1 April 2021, so a payment to an Indian seller failing is how the service works now, not a fault.
No. PayPal stopped domestic payments within India from 1 April 2021. You can still pay international shops, and freelancers and exporters can receive money from overseas clients.
Not necessarily. Check your account for any notice or request from PayPal first. If nothing is pending and the money is still missing, message PayPal from the Message Centre with the transaction ID.
PayPal support starts after you log in. Go to Contact Us or the Message Centre, pick your issue, and you will be shown the message, chat or call options for it. The +91 22 6145 1405 number on PayPal's site is for businesses wanting an account specialist.
1 April 2021 se PayPal ne India ke andar domestic payment band kar diya hai. Ab sirf videsh ke payment hote hain, jaise freelancer ya exporter ko bahar se paisa. Yeh koi kharabi nahi hai; login ya bahar ka payment fail ho to is page ki reports dekhiye.
