PayPal Canada launches Passport small business tool

Toronto -- PayPal Canada is launching PassPort, a website designed to help small businesses sell internationally. On the PassPort website, entrepreneurs can find export market specific guidance on seasonal sales peaks including holidays and events; cultural customs, taboos and trends; shipping and distribution logistics; currency exchange and fees; and customs procedures and taxes.



Businesses using PassPort will gain insight into the traditions, trends and taboos around the world, allowing them to look beyond traditional peak selling days and discover country-specific sales opportunities.



"Small business owners know that reaching a global market can exponentially increase their sales, but many aren't sure where to start," said Cameron Schmidt, general manager, PayPal Canada. "We designed PassPort with our international insights to help small businesses tap into global sales opportunities as simply and seamlessly as possible."
