Issues receiving money from people on paypal

Whenever I try to receive money from someone using PayPal, the person tells me that they get one of the following errors: “This recipient accepts PayPal payments only through their website. To complete this payment, please go to their website and follow their instructions, or email the recipient for instructions.” OR “The recipient cannot receive payments right now.” Can someone tell me how to fix this problem? (P.S. I live in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines).

The option to receive paypal payments is sadly not available in St. Vincent & Grenadines.
You can only send payments for purchases funded by your (confirmed) credit card.

Paypal varies a lot country to country and can only offer the services that the banks / governments of that country allow it to offer.
There are quite a few countries unable to receive paypal payments.
