Hello @Temp20231213X

Thanks for joining the PayPal Community! 

I understand you'd like to learn how to transfer money to your PayPal account. The information you're requesting isn't information we're able to provide. Your PayPal account isn't associated with an account number; it's tied to your confirmed PayPal email address. The other numbers are also typically numbers assigned after a transaction was initiated. 

When transferring money to and from your PayPal account, I do not recommend initiating the transfer from your bank's side. This transaction will not be traceable by PayPal, and if anything happens, we will not be able to help if it doesn't reach us. You can learn how to add a bank account to PayPal on our Help Center here. After that, please visit this article to learn how to add money and this one to learn how to withdraw. 

I hope this information helps!
