Easiest country to create a stealth PayPal?
 

Am trying to move my sales from eBay to my website but I’m struggling with a payment solution. I don’t want to use my personal PayPal account or my real identity.


In the past I could create Koho bank accounts (Canadian), using a made up name. They also issue a virtual debit card so I would just e-transfer to this account and use it to create a verified PayPal.

This worked fine late last year but now as of February something changed and they require me to verify with ID every time.

Anyone have solution? How are you guys verifying stealth PayPal accounts?

Edit: I’m fine with making a new PayPal every month or so to avoid uploading ID. Just need something to replace koho bank and debit card solution

You can apply for a merchant account and accept credit cards .

Asia paypals is definitely good. Way lesser chance of getting asked for those verification documents.

Thanks Allpurpose I'm going to try an Asian paypal.

Agent006- This would be the way to go but they sure want alot of personal info. I remember getting a stripe account under a stealth name in 2018 but seems merchants and cloaked merchants are alot harder to get these days. Thanks for the replies

you can always make them by yourself, or if not, just buy premade accounts.

premade merchant accounts are for sale some place with use of other info?

Why don't you want to use your ID for a real payment processor and bank for your own website?

she could have a negative balance in her Paypal account so any sales proceeds going to that account would be used to offset that negative balance.

Re: Easiest country to create a stealth PayPal?
 

other payment processors exist than paypal though

I found it easy enough to just use a vcc from here on the forum and a SIM card. Problem solved

Re: Easiest country to create a stealth PayPal?
 

Right. saves time and you know it'll work.

Sim card with a real phone works best too.

Good for you, mate

interesting the koho bank accounts worked with made-up names - wow

Re: Easiest country to create a stealth PayPal?
 

Yea wish I made a whole bunch while I had the chance. Who knows, maybe it was just a problem with my setup flagging me for ID

Re: Easiest country to create a stealth PayPal?
 

I transferred my perfume sales to my personal page .store
eBay is doing a lot of VeRo, I was afraid of losing it...
In this case I applied an old stealth Paypal account and I have received payments without problems, I recommend aging or marinating the Paypal account so that it is not limited, I hope I can help you

yeah I decided to check it out - asking for ID....seems like you had a nice window period of ID evasion
