Help with setting up Paypal for use with Depop

I setup this account to use with Depop. When I went to set it up as a goods and services it asked for the legal business name. I don't have a "legal" name (no incorporation document, etc.). It's just an account to sell some crafts. I set it up as friends and family but now my Depop account has been flagged for not using Paypal correctly. What should I do? Should I just put a business name even though it's not "legal"?

No idea about depop but you don't set paypal accounts up as goods/services or friends/family, you either open a personal or business account.

 

The goods/services and friend/family options are available on both account types and which you use is dependent on whether you are selling or buying goods/services or sending a gift of money to family/friends.

 

So what country are you in and what paypal account do you have?
