PayPal and Venmo roll out suite of new product updates

A completely new PayPal checkout experience that radically speeds up check out for consumers

In brief:

- PayPal announced six new innovations the company is piloting and bringing to market this year to revolutionise commerce through AI driven personalisation for both merchants and consumers.

- With digital commerce expected to exceed $6 tn in 20241, merchants need new, advanced ways to speed consumers through checkout in a seamless way that reduces lost sales.
