Hi @marshaH,

 

Welcome to the community! 

 

That's absolutely correct! A sender would only need your email address in order to send you a payment. Please also make sure that your email address is confirmed on your PayPal account, as the payment, once sent, will only show up once the email is confirmed.

 

I hope this helps!
