Good day Ma'am/ Sir,

 

I would like to be enlightened. Shall I necessarily need to upgrade my Paypal account from personal to business in order to get paid for online job or not?

Hoping for responses because I had accidentally upgrade my account and I'm still on the process of filling information. Just want to know the result??

No, typically you don't necessarily need to upgrade to a business account in order to receive payment. Depending on your region, PayPal may require you to verify your account and perform KYC steps before receiving payment. You can also indicate that the business account is "Individual" not a registered company.

 

If you want to downgrade to a personal account, please contact customer service:

Log on, click HELP on top menu, scroll down to click CONTACT US, and then scroll down to click CALL US or other available options.

What if you already had a personal account. And you wanted to downgrade your business Paypal as well. Is it possible?
