If they look at your forum avatar (or mine) the probability of getting one goes to zero.

Sorry for digging this up, but I just tried to send money to a Khmer PayPal account and it doesn't work. Does anyone know if any other similar service works here? Like moneybookers?

A couple years ago, simply logging in to my Paypal account from Cambodia (from a hotel computer) caused the account to be frozen for "suspicious activity," with the only hope of reactivating/verifying it requiring my physical presence back in the US...a right pain in the ass, too, as at the time it was my "backup" spending account for the (six week) SEAsia trip in question...
From then on, I only connect to Paypal from Cambo on my personal laptop, using VPN from my work account in the US...

Mnn,...
Sounds like a hot issue about payment options in Cambodia. While Paypal does not allow Cambodian to accept payment/money, Cambodian can only pay for the online items via paypal.
To accept payments online, there are some options for you:
1. 2checkout.com (recommended, but not sure they are the best one, they closed my acct without any particular reasons), the support seemed not to care much about you as asian people, the fee is higher too.)
2. paxum.com sounds to be good, but they don't accept paypal, but only visa or wire transfer.
3. Let you brother, sister, neighbors who live in countries other than Cambodia (Vietnam is not recommended), to open Pay Pal account for you in his/her name, then you can use this account to accept payment through paypal (pay pal must be verified before you can use it).
Also there are many other options for you, but not too good to mentions here....
Thanks, Janny
