US Paypal to UK Bank?
 

Hi all,

First off, I'm so glad I found this forum! What a great place!

So, I recently got a "new" US Paypal account up and running. Logged in via a VPN with a fresh US IP and everything looks great.

Before I proceed, I just wanted to get your opinions on something.

We run several ecommerce sites, which we will be connecting this paypal account to. The sites are nearly all UK based. Do you think this will be an issue? Will it raise red flags?

Also, what is the best way of getting this money out to a UK bank account? I had thought of sending it to a UK Paypal account, but now I'm not so sure this is a good idea.

Appreciate any advice and your thoughts on this.

Welcome to the forum VapeKing.

Sending money from one PayPal to another is definitively not a good idea. Could work for few transactions but then... the link would be evident and you put both accounts in danger.

Best way is to get a US Bank account.

You will want to withdraw to a UK bank account. By far and away the safest method.

Thanks for the welcome everyone.

That was my plan initially, but was sure it would be the safest route with it been a US PP and a different name on the UK bank account.
