Hello margyparker,   You will not be able to attach the same bank account to 2 different accounts, however, PayPal has the ability to set up a relationship between your accounts where all of your funds from one account can be automatically swept into another account everyday and then transferred out to the intended bank account once this has completed.    Hope this helps!!

Hello signguy,   After you have set up your Add to cart button you are taken to the page that shows you the HTML code that you can copy and paste to your website. On that page that shows you the code there is a link to create a View Cart Button.  Choosing that link will give you a new code just for a button that shows your customer their cart and allows them to checkout.    Hope this helps!!

Hello ejunprung,   If you are using a third party shopping cart to accept PayPal payments then your cart will have to have this option built into it.  If it is not immediately obvious how to set this up within that shopping cart I would suggest contacting the provider of your cart for further instructions.     Hope this helps!!

Hello janemcvideo,   That address should be either the primary email address you use to log into PayPal or any other email address that is confirmed on your PayPal account.  That email address is how your shopping cart knows where to send your payments within PayPal.    Hope this helps!!

Hello kmblock,   If you are clicking on your own button from your computer it will populate your email address or user ID for logging in just as it may when you go to PayPal.com to access your account, your customer's will not see this, but rather their own information should popoulate to login.  If you were to clear your cache and cookies this would render that field blank if you were to go through your own checkout again.    Hope this helps!

Hello rosie1961,   If someone has sent a money request to you for you to submit a payment you will find this in the recent activity when you first login or the history if it was not sent in the last 7 days.  When you see the money request you will have a Pay Now button which you will click to send the money to your seller.    Hope this helps!

Hello WestbrookeHOA,   To start out you would just sign up for a PayPal business account and enter your information accordingly.  Once you have your account set up you will click on the Merchant Services tab and click on the Buy Now button icon at the top of that page.  From here you can set up a Buy Now button (which you can change to say Pay Now as well) using the form there.  This will allow your customer to click that button to submit one time payments to your account to cover  dues.  From these pages you will see that you can also set up Subscription buttons to automatically take dues from your customer's accounts as well.    Hope this helps!

  Hello HCC2010,   The only way to accomplish this with an HTML PayPal button is to add a drop down menu that is prefilled with the amounts of product available for order.  When creating your button you can check the box to Add drop-down menu with price/option.  You can have up to 10 fields in your drop-down menu for the button and yours, for example, would start with a quantity of 10 and the matching price.    Hope this helps!

Hello gwynn_fan92071,   You can set up monthly account statements from your profile section within your account.  After logging in and choosing profile, select the My Money tab on the left side.  On this page there is a link at the bottom that says Monthly Account Statements.  After clicking on that link you will choose Yes to receive monthly account statements.  From there you can choose which month you would like to view.    Hope this helps!

The $2000 limit is a lifetime limit for any card.  Meaning that once the card has spent $2000 dollars through PayPal an account will have to be created.   For larger transactions like these it will be a much smoother process if either the buyer has an account or if you are processing with Website Payments Pro or Virtual Terminal.    Let me know if you have additional questions!
