I want to accept a payment for an item I'm selling thru craigslist.  The buyer asks if he can pay thru PayPal.  What information do I need to provide to him so he can submit the payment?

Thanks for any help!

Hi 2furs39, 

 

Thank you for contacting the PayPal Community Forum and welcome as a new member!

 

If you wish to receive a payment through PayPal you will need to provide your email address to the buyer. Please ensure they submit the payment using the Goods/Service payment option as this is required in order to be covered for Seller Protection on PayPal.
