Ukraine\u2019s vice prime minister Mykhailo Fedorov tweeted out<\/a> a letter from PayPal CEO Dan Schulman, confirming the company\u2019s decision to shut down its operations in Russia.<\/p>\n We received a letter from @Dan_Schulman<\/a>, CEO PayPal. So now it\u2019s official: PayPal shuts down its services in Russia citing Ukraine aggression. Thank you @PayPal<\/a> for your supporting!

It stopped accepting new Russian users<\/a> earlier this week but has now made the sweeping decision to halt its services altogether \u2014 a measure that also includes the PayPal-owned money transfer service, Xoom. PayPal spokesperson Aidan Kelly told The Verge<\/em> that PayPal will still \u201ccontinue work to process customer withdraws for a period of time, ensuring that account balances are dispersed in line with applicable laws and regulations.\u201d<\/p>\n With the financial sanctions put in place<\/a> by the US, UK, European Union, and many others, some Russian users may not have been able to use their bank cards to make payments through PayPal regardless. The sanctions have already cut off some users from Apple Pay and Google Pay<\/a>, as they target Russia\u2019s largest financial institutions, barring bank customers from making card payments to businesses and services registered in countries that imposed sanctions.<\/p>\n
