Business Account for a new online business

Hi, 

 

I have opened a new online business (let's say- xyz.com). I want to process the payments through PayPal and want to open a business account. And it's asking me for the business name.  This new online business is not yet registered. 

 

1. I already have a personal PayPal account and I myself am registered as a sole trader with ABN (Australian Business Name).

2. I also have a Pty Ltd company registered (let's say ABC Pty Ltd) which already has an ABN (Australian Business Name) and ACN( Australian Company Name).

 

What options I have?  or rather what's the best way to open the business PayPal account. 

 

Should I be registering the new website (xyz.com) for Business Name linked to my own ABN and upgrade my personal PayPal account to business? And in such a scenario, would I need to open a new business bank account for xyz.com or I can transfer money to my personal bank account that has already been linked previously to my PayPal account. 

 

OR 

 

Should I be registering the new website (xyz.com) for Business Name linked to my existing company ( ABC Pty Ltd) ABN and open a new Paypal Business Account. In this scenario, since I guess there is a requirement that PayPal has that business name should match the bank account name, I would need to open the bank account for (xyz.com) and won't be able to use the exiting company bank account. 

 

 

Any help would be appreciated. 

 

Thanks
