What if I don't have a bank account linked to my PayPal account?

If someone buys something from my website and pays via PayPal, does the transaction still go through if my pay pal account has no bank account linked yet?  Would the payment wait in the paypal account until the bank account is linked up?  And/Or can I request a check be sent to me?  What are the fees involved with all of this?

Thanks!

Hi julie2014!

 

Without a bank account attached, you can still receive a payment and request that a check be mailed to you. 

 

How the fees work on PayPal can be found here, or by clicking on the "Fees" link at the bottom of any page:
