From eBay:
"Personal accounts are for casual buying and selling on eBay, while business accounts are a good option for sellers who:
- Sell items that were bought exclusively for resale
- Make items and sell them, intending to make a profit
- Sell a large number of goods on a regular basis
- Buy items for their business
Business sellers can register with a company name which will appear in correspondences and invoices. They may also be eligible for tax benefits and qualify for discounts on eBay fees.
To become a business seller, you can either change your personal account to a business account or register a new business account."
======
If you're a casual/occasional seller with eBay, then link a personal Paypal account. If you want to go full stop pro seller, larger volume, then open a PayPal business account to link with it.
Note: Don't know if you were ever able to withdraw to your Paysera card before but in your country, funds can only be withdrawn to Visa card issued in Algeria.
