I want to accept my Celsius crypto via PayPal but can't find the Crypto option in the menu on website or App.
How can I activate this?

Hi. You would need the claim code sent to you in email from Stretto Celsius Network. In Paypal, navigate to the crypto section (it will be under the cash section with the dollar sign). The word Crypto is an underlined hyperlink. click on the word, Crypto. Then, scroll down toward the bottom where you see Paypal / Celsius logos and "Have a Celsius claim code? You can redeem it here." and the big blue Redeem Claim Code Button. Click on the button. You need to put in your birthday and then put in the claim code sent to your email for your celsius claim. Then Paypal will want to send a code to your phone to verify your identity. (This is as far as I got today because Paypal never sent the code to my phone and now I have to contact support). Good luck! I thought I'd help you out since I'm dealing with the same problem. Hope you can get your funds back. If you encounter the same problem contact support.

I have my Celsius claim codes, but on Paypal the "Have a Celsius claim code?" option is not shown at the bottom of the page in the Crypto section anymore (or maybe it never did for me). I've seen videos of that link from February 2024, but I don't see it now in May 2024. It is either no longer there, or perhaps it's an issue with my Paypal name excluding my middle name. Celsius lists my middle name too.
I have tried to change my name to include my middle name on Paypal along with sending in my ID, but Paypal with just "accept" my name change and not actually change it at all to include my middle name.
I can't get either Stretto, Celsius, or Paypal to respond to my requests for assistance in receiving my funds, despite having claim codes sent. So frustrating. The scam doesn't end.
Any thoughts or help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
