Hello,

I want to change my personal PayPal account to Business with a type of "Individual".

Is somebody know can I use another name (like: "SellWell Corp" or something like this) for my business account instead of my real name???

Because I do not want to show my real name on the client's receipts. Also, I have not a really registered company name. 

 

Thanks for your help!

Go to Account settings (gear icon), in the Account Options section, click Upgrade to Business account. When you proceed through the upgrading process choose "Individual" option in the "Business Type" drop down menu and enter your "alias" as business name. The account holder name has to be your real name though.


Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
