PayPal
PayPal is a global leader in digital payments, enabling secure online money transfers, shopping, and financial services worldwide.
Founded 1998
San Jose, CA
Miami Connection
PayPal itself has no prominent office or employee base in Miami or South Florida, limiting its direct economic footprint there. Indirect influence comes via alumni like ex-CEO Bill Harris basing his new digital bank Nirvana in Wynwood and hiring locally, and co-founder Peter Thiel opening investment firm offices managing billions in assets, boosting the area's emergence as a tech and finance hub.
