I am a content creator on Instagram and sometimes I get paid by brands to promote a certain product on my account. Prior to this, I was able to receive payments on my PayPal account when I still have my debit card linked to it. But now I don’t know if I can still receive payments without having any linked debit/credit card.

Hi @hedrix,
Welcome to the Community!
You don't need to have a debit card linked to your PayPal account to receive money.
Someone using PayPal only needs to know your email address or mobile phone number to send you money.
If you have money in your PayPal account balance, you can transfer it to your bank account, use it for online purchases or sent it to friends or family.
It is always best to link and confirm a debit or credit card on your PayPal account, however.
If you want, you can read more information on this here.
Hopefully, this helps you out.
