So this is a pretty simple question (I hope) regarding how I can protect my identity when donating.
So, I'm a regular viewer on Twitch and like to donate to a lot of channels that either do charity streams or just in general require donations.
Am I allowed to create an account with an alias to donate from? as I'd rather they not know my identity when I donate.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Dizzazter,
Welcome to the Community!
I'm sorry but it's not possible for you to open a PayPal account under an alias. PayPal are an online payments processor so we are required to know who our customers are.
David.
