PayPal is available in some form in 191 countries as of May 2013. PayPal only offers limited service in some countries. It has no dealings whatsoever in some other countries, many of which are in the Middle East or Africa.
PayPal does not publicly detail why it does not service particular countries. Media speculation suggests common reasons could include insufficient regulation and security in a country's banking system, failure of a country to comply with U.S. tax law, or a U.S. trade ban affecting a country.
As for me I lost a lot of online opportunities because of PayPal, one is prolific which makes surveys available for you, another is humanatic, a transcription company, and a lot I can't remember.
