When I apply for the card, it asks me for my zip code (numbers only) and Canada only has postal codes that include letters and numbers, so I am unable to continue through to the end of the application process. is there a restriction in Canada for the PayPal Prepaid Mastercard? ...

Thanks Kernowlass, If I make changes to my business name and website address, will this cause issues with me getting paid? Or if i use as is, with my old web address will it cause complications, delay payment? @kernowlass wrote: @daveinarmstrong   You are only allowed a maximum of 2 paypal accounts and only then if x1 is business and the other x1 is personal. If you have 2 or more of the same type then you risk them being limited as its against paypal rules.   Check out this link and see if it helps. https://www.paypal.com/ca/smarthelp/article/how-do-i-change-the-name-on-my-paypal-business-account-faq705?app=searchAutoComplete   ...

Hi, I am in Canada. I have had a PayPal merchant account for a few years and never used it. I now have a customer in the USA that wants to purchase from me using PayPal. My business name has changed and my business website listed on PayPal has changed. Can I change my business name and website address and continue to use this account, or do I need to establish a new account with PayPal?   Thanks for your help. ... View more
