Awhile back, I linked my PayPal account to my Acorns. And now I am troubled and can not find a way to unlink these accounts. Can someone help me?

To unlink Acorns from your PayPal account, you'll need to remove the permission you have given. 

 

From the security tab in your PayPal account profile, select update "Permissions you've given" then next to Acorns select "Remove".

Thank you Oregon11, I did remove the permission; however, I can still see my Acorns balance through PayPal. It looks like the two account are still linked...

Try this, select Acorns account from the link on the left in your Summary, select Edit Account Settings, there should be a Disconnect Acorns from PayPal link at the bottom of the page. There is also an Edit Account Settings link for Acorns in the PayPal app.

Are you using a desktop browser or the app?

You could try a different browser.

 

You can access Acorns from the PayPal app and in the edit settings find the disconnect link.

Any fix for this? I'm having the same issue. I linked the account but when I go to Acorns under Summary and click on the 3 dots. There is no edit option. I can only go straight into Acorns from there and Acorns in not showing Acorns as a linked account However, by info is being displayed in PayPal.
