Ans. Yes you can order domains or any hosting services using a Solo and Electron card provided you select the “Paypal” option when signing. Paypal will then allow you to make secure payments using these cards.

Please note, you do not require a Paypal account to make payment by Paypal. However if you do setup  a Paypal account it will allow you make purchases without revealing your credit/debit card details to internet merchants.

People registering domain names and web hosting, using Paypal to pay, may have been experiencing problems over the last few days. After a frustrating week, this was eventually tracked down to an issue with Paypal itself.

Although unconfirmed, by Paypal’s Merchant Support itself, the issue appears resolved and you can order domains and web hosting by Paypal as normal.
