Yes, but you'll need a credit card to sign up.

But after the trial period is over, (or during it, perhaps?) you should be able to make a payment via whatever supported way you want, and paypal is definitely one of them.

If you don't have a credit card, then you can still upgrade with this:

No. of Indian members are second after US members on chess.com. Chess.com must prvoide some payment gateaway through netbanking in India. Our bank doesnot even suport payment through paypal. SOMEBODY PLEASE CONVEY THIS TO CHESS.COM ADMINS. I AM CONFIDENT THERE ARE MORE INDIAN MEMBERS WHO WISH TO UPGRADE BUT CANT DUE TO CC CONSTRAINT.

There are very good and safe ways to make payments by mobile phone.

I've used Zong Mobile on various other sites, and it works great.

Payment by netbanking and /or debit card, payable in India. They must tie up either with all major banks or any third party payment agency in india which can accept payment in INR and pay chess.com in USD.

Chess.com should discuss about this issue.
