PayPal giving away £10,000 a week for ten weeks

PayPal is giving away £10,000 a week for 10 weeks running up to Christmas to celebrate its 10th anniversary. Anyone who buys from a retailer on PayPal's shopping website, paypal.co.uk/offers, and pays with PayPal, will be entered automatically in the weekly draw. (Terms apply.)

Mark Hodson, Marketing Director at PayPal UK commented: "Ten lucky people will be celebrating this Christmas with our £10,000 birthday promotion. Apart from giving shoppers something to smile about this Christmas, we're aiming to increase awareness and understanding about PayPal. Millions of UK consumers know they can use PayPal as the safer, easier way to pay for things on eBay. We want to show them that they can also use PayPal at a huge number of online retailers including the BBC Shop, Boots, BHS, CD Wow!, Dorothy Perkins and Ted Baker.

"PayPal is the safer way to pay online, as your sensitive financial details are never shared with the online store you are shopping on. It's also much easier shopping online with PayPal, as we remember your card or bank details, so that you don't need to keep typing in your address and payment information at checkout."

PayPal Offers includes hundreds of great deals from leading retailers, giving consumers a wide variety of choices for great presents this Christmas. The deals offered include some of the best cashback offers currently available, which are paid directly into a PayPal account following a purchase being made on featured websites. PayPal Offers is one of the largest and the fastest growing reward sites in 2008, and has recently introduced an innovative product search tool to help find the best presents around.

Hodson adds: "Shopping on sites that accept PayPal is a great way to ease the stresses and strains of Christmas shopping. And with great cashback offers, as well as the opportunity to win £10,000, there's no better place to look than PayPal Offers. Good luck to everyone!"
