Strong PP with an Eb account that name doesn't match?
 

I have a strong PP account that's always been stand alone, and a new-ish ebay account, that I'd like to have payments sent to the existing PP account. The names and addresses don't match, but there are no issues (limitations or other problems) with each. If I'd start out slow, from people's experience would you guess there'd be a problem because of the non-matching names?

I know there are a zillion other ways to go about this, but just suppose I were to use these together for whatever reason, just from the names not matching, would you expect issues from that alone?

I don’t see an issue if it connects and runs fine the first time.

Very difficult to say 100% OP - I have had PPs working fine for processing payments and then adding an ebay on has seemed to have caused some random issues e.g. holds, requests for docs, etc.

For my strong standalone pp accounts, I don't bother using them for ebay purposes when I don't have to - just my own experience.

If they've never been linked to another ebay/paypal, should work fine.

It's only when an account is suspended, and you attach a different account to it, that raises potential issues going forward.

It will be fine, I do this all the time
