Monthly consumer searches for "PayPal" on Google in 219 countries worldwide 2021-2022
Consumers from Germany often looked up PayPal on Google, but not as much as people from Kenya. This was according to information compiled by Google Trends, looking at how often people from around the world were searching the term "PayPal". For certain digital topics that reach the news but are not easily tracked on a per country level, such online searches can provide somewhat of an insight into local consumer interest. Noticeable for PayPal are the high values for, what Google refers to as, "low search volume regions" such as the U.S. Virgin Islands or the Northern Mariana Islands. No explanation is provided why this is, although one might assume this may stem from a reliance on cross-border e-commerce or remittance payments.
