How to Request Money Using PayPal on an iPhone

Need an easy way for someone to pay you back for a loan or purchase? Using PayPal, you can quickly and easily request money from them. This wikiHow will explain how you can send a request for money using the PayPal app on an iPhone.

EditSteps

  1. Open up the PayPal: Mobile Cash app (most often simply called the "PayPal" app). This app's icon has a 3D white P on top of a blue-gradient background. It is free to install the app.

  2. Log into the app if you haven't already done so. It offers TouchID along with a variety of other options, but you must set up an account first.

  4. Select your person who owes you money from the list. Recipients who are listed with telephone numbers will be sent a text message with the request and will need to open the app to fulfill it, while those with an email address will receive a notification in the app.

  5. Enter the value you'd like to request. Use the keypad to type out the dollar value. The period for the dollar amount won't move, so just type the digits of the total amount, and when you're done, it'll display correctly.
