homePayPal recently revealed that it was testing an in-store payments technology both via mobile and point of sale systems on a friends and family basis at Home Depot. Initially, the pilot was only for 5 stores. Today, on eBay's earnings call eBay President and CEO (and interim PayPal president) John Donahoe revealed that PayPal will be extending the pilot to 51 Home Depot stores in the San Francisco Bay Area. Basically, via the pilot customers (for now, this only applies to PayPal employees) are able to pay for items via their PayPal account at Home Depots point of sale systems. They can either use a pin code via their mobile phone or a specialized PayPal credit card that can be swiped, the payment amount will be deducted from their PayPal account.
