Hey there,
I just opened a paypal account so I can accept commissions and donations for my drawing but when I registered, I put in my legal name. That's understandable but I really don't want the people who buy my art to know my address and real name. Should I switch to a business account? I heard you can put your business name, in my case my artist name, but they charge a fee. I'm just new to all this commissioning arts so I'm a bit lost.
Any input and suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
Thank you.

Hey @miming,
Great question! You can upgrade to a business account and set your business name as your artist name, as you stated. If you do not upgrade to a business account, your full name will show up for each transaction. I hope this helps!
