Description: PYPL PayPal Holdings September 26, 2025

PayPal Holdings, Inc. runs a global technology platform that facilitates digital payments for both merchants and consumers, linking them through a two-sided network that supports online, in-person, and peer-to-peer transactions across a wide array of funding sources, including bank accounts, PayPal/Venmo balances, credit and debit cards, and emerging assets such as cryptocurrencies.

The company’s product portfolio spans the PayPal, PayPal Credit, Braintree, Venmo, Xoom, Zettle, Hyperwallet, Honey, and Paidy brands, each targeting distinct market segments-from large e-commerce merchants to small-business point-of-sale solutions and cross-border remittances-while leveraging a shared infrastructure to drive scale and network effects.

Key operating metrics illustrate the business’s momentum: FY 2023 total payment volume (TPV) reached roughly $1.5 trillion, up about 12 % year-over-year, and the active account base grew to 432 million, reflecting strong consumer adoption of digital wallets amid accelerating e-commerce penetration and a favorable regulatory environment for fintech. Macro-level drivers such as rising online shopping spend, increasing use of “buy-now-pay-later” credit products, and the shift toward cashless payments in emerging markets further underpin PayPal’s growth outlook. For a deeper, data-driven assessment of PayPal’s valuation and risk profile, the ValueRay platform offers a transparent, model-based toolkit worth exploring.
