Case Study: Fashionphile achieves $15M in annual sales and international expansion with PayPal

Fashionphile Delighting Devotees of High-End Handbags

Fashionphile, founded by Sarah Davis, grew from her eBay side hustle into a Beverly Hills–based reseller of high-end, authenticated handbags doing $15M in annual sales. As the business moved from eBay to its own website, it needed a way to accept credit card and PayPal payments online, provide top-tier security for high‑value customers, and protect buyers and the company from fraud.

PayPal’s integrated, customizable checkout (including PayPal Payments Pro) gave Fashionphile secure, easy-to-implement payment processing and fraud protection while lowering card-processing costs. The solution now handles over 95% of site transactions, helped international sales grow by 20%, and supported the company’s expansion to $15M a year by preserving customer trust.
