Can we create a PayPal account and link it to managed payments?

Hi everyone,

Is it worth creating a PayPal account and linking it to managed payments? The reason why I ask this question is because not having PayPal as a payment method will most likely cause less sales as at checkout you won’t be accepting it I know all sales go into managed payments but still a lot of customers pay with PayPal and it goes into managed payments so is it worth still creating one and linking it to managed payments?

Appreciate your replies as always.

Not sure how it works in the UK, but you don't need to do anything but have MP. Buyers can pay with paypal through it. (in the US)

The question doesn't make any sense. All customers can still pay with Paypal if they want.

I’m sorry I thought I needed a PayPal account to be paid into managed payments but I understand what you mean so looks like the answer is no I don’t need to create one.

Correct, no longer necessary.
