new account

I have obtained a new email account and ebay account. How can I link an existing paypal account to my new email and ebay  or do I have to get a new paypal account specific to my new email and ebay  accounts?

What you have to first is link and confirm the new email address to your PayPal account.   You can still keep the old address if you want and as for the new address, you have the option to make that one the Primary.

Login to your account.

* Click on the Gear icon.
* Click on the + in the address box.
* Enter your new address.
* Check "Make this my primary address"
* Click "Add Address"

Note, if that does not work for some reason, then you may have to phone customer support for help, but in most cases it's easy to do.

After the new address is confirmed, then you link your eBay account to your PayPal account and your PayPal account to your eBay account:

To link your PayPal and eBay accounts:

1. Click My eBay at the top of most eBay pages.

2. Click the Account tab.

3. Click the “PayPal Account” link on the left side of the page.

4. Click the Link My PayPal Account button.

5. You'll be asked to log into PayPal to finish linking your accounts.
