Social security number request

If I have a confirmed phone number on my account do I need to add my social security number in my profile to receive payments into my account?

Perhaps not immediately, but eventually you will need to disclose your full identity.

PayPal will alert you to the need for SS# when it becomes necessary.

 

Howevere, if PayPal has already requested a SS#, then you need to add it now.

Hi There,

 

You Need Your SSN Linked To Your Account In Order To Confirm Your Identity & When You Call Via Phone Support They Will Ask For Your Last 4 Digits of Your SSN. Also, If You Are Under The Age of 18 Please Stop Using PayPal & Close Your Account As They Will Close Your Account In The Future If They Find Out BUT Only IF Your Under 18. Hope You Have A Good One!
