Private to business account

[jenupy2j]

Just opened a sealth paypal and ebay.

Didn't link paypal to ebay yet.

My account type on ebay is private and it does not show an option to Upgrade to business account inside account > Personal information.

How do I get the "upgrade to business" option?

If you want to have a business account (it's a sellers account of course), your account can't be private. Once you "un-private" the account you should be able to make it a business account. But next time you sign-up, you can choose for the account to be personal or business. Choose business next time and you'll probably save you some time : )

But there wasn't an option to change sign up with a business acount. How do I change it? It does not give me an option to change inside Accounts> personal information.

Is it because I have not linked a a paypal or not started selling?

Yes it is

You cannot be a business account without ringing all the bells.

Verified Paypal - always the first step
Get limits lifted ASAP - what business do you know of that can exist on under £1900 a year?

If you are going to register as a business at least look like one.
