I have used Paypal for accepting payments from abroad .

There are no charges incurred from accepting the payments . If there are any , they will be borne by the sender / depositor .

However , you have to pay some charges when you transfer that money to your bank account in India .

( Charges vary from time to time and upon the value of money transfer involved )

Further , the money in your Paypal account ( which ever currency and what so ever the amount ) is automatically deposited / transferred to your Indian bank account after 30 days .

The bank account which you have registered with your Paypal account .

You cannot use the money in your Paypal account for making any payments , whether in India or Abroad .

Registering is easy on Paypal . However , for enabling the account to handle the money you have to register an Indian bank account in which so ever bank and your PAN no . ( Given the bank account is in your rightful name and the bank allows you to do so and is equipped with such facility to allow E-Transfer via Paypal or other such payment portals )

After registering there is a lil procedure where Paypal deposits some funds into your account and then you have to send them back the Deposit Acceptance Code which will be issued by your bank .

Once the code is verified , you are good to go .

This was the procedure when i enrolled and i think most likely it is the same .

And the rules involving the money transfer are most likely still valid , as these are the RBI instructions which the Paypal and its users have to comply with .

Credit cards registering is easy on Paypal . Debit Cards , m not sure . Coz they usually coz a trouble , because of a variety of rules concerning a variety a debit Cards . When i tried registering my debit card , it dint succeed .

Credit card registering is rather much easier .

Safety , well , Its safe , given you know how to handle such ( online banking ) issues well enough .

Hope the info helps ! ;)

And no idea about Entropay ...
