HOW TO CREATE PAYPAL ACCOUNT.
It's very easy to create your own PayPal accounts. However, there's more complex than just filling out your details. There are some basic requirements and steps that you must follow to have your PayPal accounts set up correctly. We have explained those requirements and steps in detail in this article.
TYPES OF PAYPAL ACCOUNTS
Before creating your PayPal accounts, you must choose which type of account you are going to open. There's two types of accounts, which are; personal account and business account. They both have different features.
For sending money and shopping online, the personal account is the one to create because it's mainly used for sending money, shopping and making payments.
On the other hand, the business account is for businesses. If you want to sell online or accept payment, the business account is the perfect one. It allows the user to receive payment through debit or credit card and from so many websites.
Difference between business and personal account.
The personal account cannot receive payment, or the business account can receive payment.
For this guide, we are going to open a personal account but the process is the same for creating a business account.
Let's start. Visit the PayPal website check the right corner and click the sign Up button and choose between personal and business account. For this guide we'll choose a personal account.
Then fill out the form with your details such as your name, email and password. After that choose your country and continue. Next fill out the second form by entering your nationality and your address, phone number and any other information that's required. By clicking continue your account will automatically open but you are not yet done because there's some steps to complete.
Next step is to add a debit or credit card to your PayPal account in order to add funds or withdraw from your account. To do that, click the "Get started" button and fill the form that will pop up. Adding a card to your PayPal account is optional but without a card your account will be limited to setting the amount. (So I personally recommend that).
The last step is to verify your email address by clicking the link that has been sent to you by PayPal, if you didn't do it earlier.
The process of connecting your bank account is almost the same step but a bit different. By doing that PayPal will make a random deposit of $0.01 and $0.99. After that, you must enter these two figures to verify your bank account, as well as enter the four digits code to verify your card. But remember, the money deposited by PayPal is not yours because PayPal will take it back after verifying your account.
Here is the resume of the steps on how to verify your PayPal account.
Click the wallet button and select the card to be verified.
Click confirm card followed by ok, after PayPal will charge an amount from your card.
The statement of the amount that has been charged and copied the four digits code.
Click the wallet button again and click the same card, paste the four digits code and click confirm.
Yep! Now you are done
You can always add another card to your account since PayPal will need to verify your information and bumm you are done.
Hurray, You have your PayPal account. This is all you need to create your PayPal account. As said before, it's free and faster to get your PayPal account. The only thing you need is to follow the steps above.
