Peggy Hertz invented the concept of a PJ Blanket - a combination blanket and fitted bedsheet that works like a sleeping bag secured to a mattress - a few years back, and has since been making strides to ramp up her concept into a full-fledged online business powerhouse.

This needed to integrate with the PayPal system for security and to inspire more trust from customers when entering personal information.
