What is my Paypal PayerID number?

[peterfoster]

I'm trying to withdraw some money from a bookmaker to my Paypal account. It is allowing me to do this but I have to tick a box which is what they say is my "Paypal PayerID" number. This number is made up of 13 characters and is alpha-numeric commencing "MKT." Now, I didn't provide the bookmaker with any such number so I'm loth to tick the box without some comfort that the number they quote IS correct! Any advice would be gratefully received.

ok i am not sure this is the same thing BUT if you click on the cog next to 'log out' which is your profile / settings then your merchant id is a 13 digit number on the left side of the page, would that be it?

Yes, that's it! Many thanks, kernowlass.
