Hi,   I see what you are getting at..... That would be okay for one payment....   I don't know why they wouldn't have an option to accept payments to email addresses, that don't have login access.... The current method, gives away the email address or  ID for a paypal login, so all a hacker has to do is figure out the password.... This is my concern with using an email for payment..... I guess I am not missing anything here, since the lack of solutions.... They just need a "secure payment email" without login ability....to tighten up or double the security.... hint...hint... 🙂  thanks... ... View more

I want to accept payments to my email address, but dont want login access to paypal account.... I have created a small program that I want to sell, but it is  not setup on a website...I was thinking I could accepts payments or donations to a published email account, but I don't want this email to have PayPal login ability..... Is this possible for security purposes or is there another way? I do have my main business with web and paypal access, but  just wondering if this is a viable solution to sell this small program or not.... I know about the paypal.me option, but I have a business account, so I can't use it?? thanks... ... View more

I see that I can use paypal.me but not on a business account. So I either create another paypal account or use an email address....but the email is a possible security risk.  I would be giving possible hackers the login ID for paypal.  .. Its too bad we can have an email address that can't be used to login with.... Does anyone have any other ideas? thanks... ... View more
