PayPal can now be used to purchase 360 content US only Published by forahobby on Saturday, August 08, 2009

For those leery of using their credit card online, Microsoft has introduced a new method of payment for Xbox Live. PayPal can now be used to purchase Microsoft Points, the form of currency used in the Xbox marketplace.
 Users simply add a PayPal account to their payment options in the same way they would add a credit card. And while this is great news for PayPal users, it does come with a few drawbacks. Firstly, the service is only available to those in the US. Secondly, PayPal can only be used to purchase points on Xbox.com, not via an Xbox 360. You can, however, set up multiple PayPal accounts with one Xbox Live account.
It's always great to have options, so the addition of PayPal as a form of payment is good news. And combined with the recent advent of XBLA games being made available on Amazon, it gives gamers plenty of choice for how they want to purchase their games. Now let's just hope Microsoft eventually rolls out these services in other regions as well.
