    Hey man,

    PayPal is not the only online payment gateway. Have you checked with your local banks to see if they offer any online merchant accounts? You could try to go with 2CheckOut.com.

    Another way(more expensive though), would be to incorporate a business in the States or some other place where PayPal is accepted, and then use that to open a PayPal account.

    Hope this helps.

    Regards

    Well, PayPal's management probably think that Ghana's financial and banking scene is not structurally sound enough for online transactions?

    Have you asked them why they don't allow your country? You can contact their customer support.

    You can always use other
    payment systems like Google's.
