The help page says "It's easy to choose whether you want to receive Facebook Messenger notifications when you make a purchase or send money using PayPal. Here's how: Go to your ProfileIcon Settings. Click Notifications. Next to Messenger, check or uncheck the box."

 

when I get to Notifications I get this 
Payments
We'll let you know when you
Send moneyEmail for Send money
Request moneyEmail for Request money
Receive a paymentEmail for Receive a payment
Make a purchase instoreEmail for Make a purchase instore
Marketing preferences
We'll send information that's relevant to you. You can choose what you'd like to receive from us and how you'd like to receive it.

Hi manjic,

 

Thank you for your post and welcome to the community!

 

In general, you should be able to remove the option of receiving the payments notification on Messenger from the payments settings of your PayPal account. If you are unable to locate the box to untick, I would recommend trying on a different device. You should also be able to stop the notification from PayPal from your Facebook Messenger app. 

 

You can find additional information and the steps to follow here

 

I hope this helps!

Martina
