personal name change on account?

I am concerned that buyers on various platforms may be able to see my name displayed when they pay for items, or in ebay receipts.

I have an ebay, discogs & private website & I want to make sure they can never see my private name.

How can i do this?

At present my profile has an area saying 'Business information' which does display my business name, but at the very top my personal name is displayed next to the 'Name' area.

I am pretty sure this means buyers will see it at some point.

Hi oldbrowndog, 

 

That is a really good question. If you have a business account and you have your business name registered then this is what your customers will see. As long as you have your business name registered in your business name section then your personal name will not be shared. 

 

I hope this answers your question.
