Changing from personal to business account

Hello,

I have heard somewhere that you can only get paid on paypal with a business account.

i work mostly online selling merch and journals etc. but i also am a baker and take orders here in my city.

I have a few questions about this. What would you consider me as? Sole proprietor or an individual? Any ideas on what Product Service keywords I can use to describe my business best since its not really 1 niche? Also what’s a CC statement name? 

Thankyou so much

You can get paid on a personal or business account.

You only need a business account if you are a registered business / high volume seller / want to have the extra options or features available on a business account / OR paypal request you to upgrade.
