PayPal runs a two-sided payments network. Merchants pay it a take rate on transactions processed through branded PayPal checkout, Venmo, and unbranded processing (Braintree). It also earns money from interest on customer balances, credit products, and FX. Branded checkout carries high margins, while Braintree is low-margin, high-volume processing.
