Short description: Timeline of the history of PayPal Holdings, Inc.

This is a timeline of online money transfer and e-commerce service PayPal, owned by eBay from 2002 to 2015 and an independent company before and after that.

Big picture

Time period Key developments at PayPal
January 1999 – March 2000 The two companies, Confinity and X.com, that will eventually merge to become PayPal, launch separately and build competing financial products. The first iteration of the PayPal product is released by Confinity in later 1999.
March 2000 – July 2002 Confinity and X.com merge. The combined entity, initially called X.com, later changes its name to PayPal. PayPal adopts eBay as a key platform to grow its userbase, because of the need for an online payment system on eBay. eBay responds with its own payment service, Billpoint. PayPal competes fiercely with Billpoint, raises a huge amount of money, and even IPOs in February 2002.
October 2002 – mid-2010 PayPal is acquired by eBay for $1.5 billion in eBay stock. The product and userbase grow steadily, faster than the parent company eBay.
mid-2010 – September 2014 PayPal moves aggressively into new territory, including micropayments, mobile payments, in-store payments, international expansion, and more tools for small and medium businesses. It debuts new hardware and collaborates with brick and mortar stores for its in-store payments options. It acquires competitor startup Braintree, a payments gateway company.
September 2014 It is announced that PayPal will be split off eBay.
July 2015 onward The spinoff from eBay is completed on July 20, 2015, with the company trading independently under the ticker "PYPL" on the NASDAQ.[1]

1998 December Company launch Confinity, the company that would later launch the first version of PayPal, is founded by Max Levchin, Peter Thiel, Luke Nosek, Yu Pan, Ken Howery, and Russel Simmons.[2] The company idea is due to Max Levchin, and Thiel is initially interested only in being an investor, but Levchin convinces Thiel to become CEO of the company.
1999 January Company launch X.com, the company that would later merge with Confinity to become PayPal, is launched by Elon Musk.[3]
1999 July Product launch Confinity announces the launch of online payment service PayPal, intended to be usable via a web browser and via a Palm Pilot. At the launch party in July, Nokia Ventures uses PayPal to send $3 million in venture capital investment on-stage.[4][5]
