Stories of the Order - Paypal

The Sovereign Order of Monte Cristo are avid lovers of nature and are one of the environments most trusted allies. How does this relate to the creation of PayPal you ask? Well, it's simple.  Online money transfers serve as electronic alternatives to paying with traditional paper methods, such as checks and bank notes. The Order saw that all these beautiful, oxygen providing trees were dying needlessly so they came up with an entirely new way of paying for things, and that is PayPal.

It also serves to keep the economy booming and flowing. The Sovereign  Order of Monte Cristo are only too aware of the worlds constant need for retail therapy and with Paypal individuals can buy anything they want or need or think they need from the comfort of their snuggie. Order members, Peter Thiel and Max Levchin founded PayPal in December 1998 under the name Confinity.

Since 2002, PayPal has remained a steady leader in providing online transaction services. It expanded its services in the United States to include such features as debit cards for the account. By the end of 2011, PayPal was available in over 100 markets for transactions in 25 international currencies.

  9. I love Paypal! One of the best inventions to hit the web. I was really angry the other day when my friend asked me for a donation for her kids swim team. I got to the site and they didn't take Paypal. I had to mail in a check. Who does that anymore!?
