PayPal

Founded in 1998, PayPal, an eBay Company, is akin to an online (Internet) banking service.

PayPal's service builds on the existing financial infrastructure of bank accounts and credit cards and uses the world's most advanced proprietary fraud prevention systems to create a safe, global, real-time payment solution. Located in San Jose, Calif., PayPal was acquired by eBay Inc. in October, 2002.
