PayPal is a service that enables you to pay, send money, and accept payments without revealing your financial details.

It's real simple to use and I'm not computer savy either. I just sent $76 to a guy on another site for some stabilizers for my target bow

Paypal is great for the non computer savvy because you don't have to input your address every time. I would suggest only using a Credit card as they are easy enough to cancel and get a new number.  Very secure and easy to use.  Just don't link your bank account when they ask you to - you don't need to unless you are taking payments from someone. 

I am 52 and although I enjoy playing around with computers, my brother (one year older) is as low tech as they come and he uses it. Many online merchants let you pay that way and I do it because it is quick and easy.  Bought my daughter a monopod for her shotgun on my smartphone while turkey hunting this morning. Actually sitting in the woods and shopping.

What gr8vet said.  I just have my credit card info signed up, not bank account.  I just bought a choke tube on here yesterday and I will get it a week or so sooner than sending MO, which is how I used to do it.

Just in time for my grandson to use in youth season!
