I am not saying everyone has a problem with PayPal. Obviously they wouldn't be in business if that was true. However if you are a merchant trying to maximize sales, you only hurt yourself by making PayPal your only payment option. I have used PayPal in the past, but lately it doesn't seem to work too well for me. Every time I try to use it, I have to reverify my bank account for some reason. This is not convenient as is using a credit card. Also there will be a lot of people that don't trust PayPal or won't go through the trouble of setting up a PayPal account. That hurts business, not helps it. It doesn't matter that some people have no problems with PayPal, limiting your options in billing will only lower your sales in the long run.
