Guys,
There seems to be a new development on this...
It says paypal accounts in Kenyan can receive!
Send. Receive. Withdraw to a U.S. Bank Account or a card. Send and receive payments in these countries. Withdraw from your PayPal account to a U.S. bank account
https://www.paypal.com/worldwide/
Someone test and let me know if it works. If you have a Kenyan account am willing to donate a dollar to you to try and pay you.
David.

Hi guys, I'm one of those who run www.likechapaa.com and I want to just make it clear that this article:
http://likechapaa.com/2010/07/how-to-use-paypal-in-kenya/
was written by one of our writers narrating her *personal* experience. She wrote a "part 2" in which she clearly says that PayPal does not actually work in Kenya. You cannot receive money while in Kenya.
Here is the "part 2": http://likechapaa.com/2010/08/how-to-use-paypal-in-kenya-part-2/
Please try: AlertPay, Google Checkout or even MoneyBookers
Warm regards to everyone

Thanks for the heads up David and Okech - the blogger also did a piece http://likechapaa.com/2009/07/receiving-online-payments-in-kenya/ where she outlines a few other options including 2co.

@Brian, I have been on the e-commerce industry in Kenya and I have all facts on my fingertips. Paypal is working closely with a bank in Kenya and by mid next year we might see something. For now, try other options.

You're right guys - so it looks like 2co is the best option.
