$PYPL PAYPAL ALERT: Bragar Eagel & Squire, P.C. is Investigating PayPal Holdings, Inc. on Behalf of Long-Term Stockholders and Encourages Investors to Contact the Firm https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2025/02/04/3019960/0/en/PAYPAL-ALERT-Bragar-Eagel-Squire-P-C-is-Investigating-PayPal-Holdings-Inc-on-Behalf-of-Long-Term-Stockholders-and-Encourages-Investors-to-Contact-the-Firm.html

PayPal is facing multiple class-action lawsuits, including allegations of anti-competitive practices, "stealing" commissions from influencers through its Honey extension, and failing to properly secure customer data.
Here's a breakdown of the key lawsuits and allegations:
Anticompetitive Practices & Higher Prices:
A class-action lawsuit alleges that PayPal's "anti-steering rules" prevent merchants from offering lower prices for transactions using alternative payment methods, forcing consumers to pay more.
These rules, according to the lawsuit, stifle competition from lower-cost payment platforms like Stripe and Shopify.
The lawsuit claims that PayPal's practices lead to consumers paying excess charges annually.
"Stealing" Commissions from Influencers:
A class-action lawsuit alleges that PayPal's Honey browser extension, which was acquired in 2020, replaces the affiliate marketer's cookie with its own, taking credit for the sale and the resulting commission.
The suit claims that Honey does this even if it doesn't find a coupon, or when a consumer activates PayPal Rewards, essentially "swooping in at checkout" and diverting commissions.
This has led to allegations that PayPal is "poaching" influencers' sponsorship and sales commissions.
Data Breach & Security Failures:
A separate class-action lawsuit alleges that PayPal failed to properly safeguard and secure the sensitive personal information of its customers during a December 2022 data breach.
The New York State Department of Financial Services announced that PayPal will pay a $2 million penalty for violations of its Cybersecurity Regulation.
Other Lawsuits:
A venture capitalist sued PayPal, alleging racial bias in a funding program for minority startups.
A class action lawsuit alleges that PayPal failed to provide customers with monthly account statements and error-resolution notices as required by the Electronic Fund Transfer Act.
GamersNexus filed a class action lawsuit against PayPal and Honey, alleging conversion, tortious interference with contract, and unfair and deceptive trade practices. $PYPL

Do your DD before investing into Paypal. $PYPL here's another one, there are sooooo many complaints against this company.

"PayPal is disgusting
Why aren't there any class action lawsuits agains this entity? They literally hold hundreds of thousands of accounts hostage, earn interest on the money by locking user accounts for weeks, months.

At the time of registration, you provide with your full name, associated bank accounts, email, phone number etc.

Then all of a sudden, PayPal locks your funds due to "suspicious activity" and asks for a bunch of personal IDs and documentations they're not supposed to have in first place.

Account impact

Pay using PayPal (inactive)

Refund money to customers (inactive)

Send money or payments (inactive)

Withdraw money from PayPal (inactive)

Receive money or payments (this one's active as they want more of your money).

What is this scam and why are they still operating?" https://www.reddit.com/r/Entrepreneur/comments/r75ju8/paypal_is_disgusting/

PayPal is my best pal

that's awesome! PayPal Holdings Inc has been a go-to for online transactions, but if you’re looking for alternatives, it’s worth checking out Corpay. I’ve read some positive Corpay reviews, particularly around their services for businesses, so it could be a solid option depending on your needs.

PYPL new 52 week high

increasing, would mean standardizing all businesses to use a specific UI and/or access method. Today, sometimes it asks for a password, sometimes it's recognize you other times no, other times fingerprint, etc. Why? For what? If it's the same phone.

Yeah, pypl is up, was 350 a share, been shorted

I have my stop level and profit levels all set. You can joke all you want. This has greater upside than downside, and that's all you need to be a successful investor. I don't trade it, so I don't care about day-to-day or month-to-month stock price fluctuations. See you at $120.

Level...Why dont you buy some and lose more money.. hahaha...

Back and forth. What's with the $60 level?

And .... It's gone. Was a good chance to add more.

Do I see 57.00 as today low....

This stock might never rebound to 120 dollars... there' are other new companies that transfer money everyday...I think PayPal overpriced itself... overrated itself...and that's how the stock got cut in half and still trading at 50-60 a share for like a year ago and...

To level.... you have a Long time to hold this stock or until you are dead... you are adorable... lmao

Floored? Meh. This is a long-term for me. I couldn't care less about the daily/weekly fluctuations.
I got all the time in the world.

Hello leveled...did you get floored yet??? Lmao... this stock is still trading in the 60sss...

O M Goodness ...

CEO is talking later today

Sweet. Superb news
