Properly withdrawing money from PayPal..
 

About $1500 available in my PayPal balance.

Only withdraws I've made were about $30 every 2-3 days..

How would one go about withdrawing this cash? I want to also leave $400 to not bring too much attention.

Re: Properly withdrawing money from PayPal..
 

Steady increments is the best way. Don't take it all in one shot. Also don't leave your balance at $0 when you withdraw so it would be best to leave around $400.

The worst thing you can do is try to take everything in a single withdrawn.

I generally leave 10%-20% of my funds in the account.

Re: Properly withdrawing money from PayPal..
 

If it is fresh, do not take more than 100 usd once several days. After several months you will be able to withdraw 500 usd per day without problems.

Thanks for all the replies.

Currently withdrawing about $15 USD every 2 days or so. I think I'll make it $100 USD once a week.

Re: Properly withdrawing money from PayPal..
 

What I tend to to do with new accounts is

a) Keep 20% in the balance at all times.

b) Withdraw around £50 to start with, and then double the amount until I reach £500. So £100, £200, £300 etc.

I'll space withdrawals a few days apart.

So with you withdrawing a mere 15 USD, that would be a little too extreme.

I have always withdrawn whatever amount I wanted. If you haven't done anything wrong, there's nothing to worry about...at least for me.

Re: Properly withdrawing money from PayPal..
 

whatever amount you wanted doesn't make any sense in regard to OP question, have you withdrawn 5,000 in one withdrawal on a fresh account? this would definitely get your account limited.

So, the best way to properly withdraw funds from PayPal is by establishing a certain level of 'PayPal trust' by starting with small amounts and increasing them slowly. This may depend on the amount in question...

No more than $500 has been good for me on new accts.

Re: Properly withdrawing money from PayPal..
 

Actually I have. When I first created one account, which by the way is one of my strongest accounts now, I sold an item that ended at $4900. The account was 2 weeks old at that time. Delivered the item, money was released to me after 3 days and I withdrew 4700 right after that. Had no problem, other than it taking 72 hours to go from "pending" to "completed". I have done similar things on other accounts too, amounts of 1400 - 3600. However, these are all legitimate items. If you are trying to do this with high risk foofoo items then you probably wont make it.

Selling a $4900 item on a 2 weeks old account and then withdrawing $4700 after three days! :spy:

All what I'd say it's not the best advice one can give to someone asking how to properly withdraw from PayPal :coffee:

Re: Properly withdrawing money from PayPal..
 

100 - first week, 200 - 2nd week, 300 - 3rd week, so on and so forth

Re: Properly withdrawing money from PayPal..
 

Like I said, the account that I did that on is one of my strongest accounts now. Top Rated and Power Seller within the first 2 months. Can anyone and everyone withdraw like that on a new account? Probably not. But I personally have not had a problem with large withdrawals. They just take 48 or 72 hours to go from pending to completed.

Man i must be missing some important sh*&T .. How did you do this when business PP only allows $100 a month... first 90 and personal PP $500 per month.

What am i doing wrong

Re: Properly withdrawing money from PayPal..
 

When I have $1500, I would withdraw odd amounts like $357, $435, and $377, etc. I would withdraw maybe twice per week.

Re: Properly withdrawing money from PayPal..
 

You aren't doing something right then...because if you properly verified your PP account with card and bank account, you won't have any withdrawal limits.

Re: Properly withdrawing money from PayPal..
 

Why odd number? What's wrong with 500 every time?

Re: Properly withdrawing money from PayPal..
 

I called PP they said i didnt have withdrawl limits.. but still only $100 clears instant per month for the first 90 days..I have the 21 day hold.... everything is verified properly by the book...

Re: Properly withdrawing money from PayPal..
 

I figured it out... thanks

Re: Properly withdrawing money from PayPal..
 

what was the issue, just incase it pops up for someone in the future

Re: Properly withdrawing money from PayPal..
 

I think since there is 21 day hold in place it's just completely natural to withdraw everything available, merchants need money to run business.
Especially if there is more money in pending balance.
