If you'd like to use Paypal on your website you first need to have a method that Paypal can use to transfer funds to you. Paypal is not integrated with any banks in the Caribbean so if you have a US bank account that solves your first problem. But, if you don't their only other option for a payout is to use a Visa card that has been registered with them. But using this method also has it's hurdles since some banks in the Caribbean have also prohibited payments to their Visa cards from Paypal. You will need to ensure this payment is possible with your issuing bank before exploring this as an option.
