'We're not going to invest corporate cash, probably, in sort of financial assets like that,' PayPal Chief Financial Officer John Rainey said in a 'Mad Money' interview.

Venmo, the mobile wallet owned by PayPal, is expected to begin offering the same services in the first half of this year. The features will also be extended to international markets.

"The types of services that we're providing, like buy now, pay later [and] crypto as an example — even offline QR code — those are the types of things that we want to continue to invest in, be it organically or even inorganically when we see opportunities in the ecosystem," he explained.that works much like layaway plans, allowing shoppers to pay for products via an installment plan with no interest or fees.
