Well, Paypal is basically a website in which you can spend money online via it, as well as send money or receive money from others. For instance, myLot pays by Paypal. The money will go into your paypal account once payed out, and you can use it online to buy things. But, you must first link a credit card to your account before you can use it (input credit card info). You can also send other Paypal users money, or receive money from them, like myLot.

I think 18 is the limit but you can just fake it if you want no one will research that. For the credit card you need visa or master card and you link it with paypal account but i don't have either and i can still earn and get money to paypal or pay in most cases. Hope it helps.
