Is Apple Pay and PayPal the same thing?

I'm going to be upgrading from the iPhone 5S to the iPhone 6S. I also do have a Paypal account, but I was just wondering if Apple Pay/Paypal are the same. Actually might switch since Apple Pay sounds easier when you're buying things in-store. But are they the same?

No they are not the same. ApplePay is a way to pay with a credit card without actually having the carry credit cards. Not all businesses have the ability to accept ApplePay yet.

No, Apple pay just goes to your credit card that you have on file, so you don't pull out a credit card or anything, its just all automatic without exchanging cash or card.

No they are not the same. Paypal is a different company and apple pay is different
