Ask for money the easy way
Asking your friends to chip in or pay you back has just become a whole lot easier. It can be a drag asking for money back from your mates. You drop the odd comment or two and then it just becomes embarrassing if they don't get the hint.
So save yourself the hassle by simply requesting money with PayPal for Facebook. It's a great way to request money from your friends and get paid back online.

Build a badge to raise money
You can build a badge and get your friends to donate to your favourite cause by using PayPal.
Think of your badge as your own money-raising chart. You can customise its appearance and message, change the amounts you can be paid and check how you're doing in the progress chart.
It's ideal whether you're running a marathon for charity, raising money for your school or simply doing a sponsored walk.

Watch your friends post donations on Facebook to help you reach your goal faster.
