Can I use personal account for selling?

[mohammadfazel]

I read many sections but I don't understand one thing, can I sell online with my personal account or not? Of course not too much. For example, about 700 dollars per month. I saw a section in my personal account -> seller tools that was the following.

"Website preferences
Control how you sell online by turning on express checkouts and bringing customers back to your website after they pay with PayPal."

But in all sections of the PayPal site, it is written only for requesting money from family and friends, but in the sentence above, it is written "customers".

thank you

Hello @mohammadfazel,

Welcome to our community forum and thanks for posting your question here!

I am happy to help you with your inquiry about personal accounts. All PayPal accounts allow you to send and receive payments. If you're a merchant, you can use a Business account to sell online under your business name. More information about the features personal accounts offer can be found here. 

I hope this information helps!
