Hello @Elyzion,

 

Since you have a Business account you would need to sign up for the PayPal Prepaid card to obtain the direct deposit account and routing numbers provided with that card. The Prepaid card account can be linked to a PayPal Business account and funds can be transferred from the PayPal account to the card account, but not from the card account into the linked PayPal account, so the funds can only go one way. Here is a PayPal Prepaid link.

The second option for direct deposit is only available for Personal accounts. To add direct deposit to a Personal account a user would need to sign up for the PayPal Cash debit card. When signing up for this specific card, direct deposit account and routing numbers get added to the account and any deposit goes into a users PayPal balance. With the Cash card there are no transfers necessary because the direct deposit account it a part the PayPal account itself. Here is the PayPal Cash debit card link.
