Using different Paypal to receive money on one ebay account, it is possible?

rayxiaoyu · #1 08-11-2010

I am going to change the payment method. I know that using a credit card to register as a ebay seller and a Pp account( not directly linked to ebay) to receive money is a good way.
So I will just use another Pp account to receive money when listing. Now my ebay account status is, using a Pp account to register as a seller, and another Pp account to receive money. Hence, I am not changing any registration information on ebay, but just a payment method. I think that won't be flagged, what do you guys think?

Why? This will effectively link the two PayPal accounts. Why one to sign up and another to receive payments? I don't understand why you are doing this.

because I want to change another paypal account to receive money. But I don't want to link it directly to ebay account.

No and no. You will link both of your paypal acccounts right away...you can easily link them even when you send funds from one account to another.... It can work for some time, but when Ebay finds out then they will be gone got good.... Sorry... It's sad but it's the truth...

I don't care if they link. They don't have bad experience so far. I just want to know if ebay will suspend my account due to that?
I don't sell vero products. I just want to change a PP account to receive money.

Not a good idea at all. Is there something wrong with the PayPal on there now? Because whatever troubles are on that one will be carried over to the other one I'm afraid.

Do they have the exact same info? If not, a bad idea

rayxiaoyu · #8 08-11-2010

both paypal accounts are in good status, but different information. I need to use another paypal account to receive. That is all. Do you have an advice?Pod?

pod · #9 08-11-2010

You cant add a paypal with one name and address with another name and address. Its sure fire misery

If you can explain why you need to do this it may help.

rayxiaoyu · #10 08-11-2010

my account is linking to one paypal account. But I don't need it to receive money due to some private problem. Then I want to change another pP account to receive money. I wonder if Ebay will suspend me for that?

pod · #11 08-11-2010

ya, I'm sorry. I just don't understand the problem. If the paypal account is good I just dont understand why you need to change it. You say its personal and I respect that. But I cant help here. I'll be blunt. It sounds like you are trying to circumvent funds from being available to someone else. Without knowing why, I'm out.

Thanks though

Where is GreenBean?

Just do it. I have 2 paypal accounts linked to my ebay account. No problem. I use one for paying the fees, another one to receive the payments. They are not linked at the same time, don't get me wrong. When you list the item just put the paypal account you want to use to receive payments at the bottom of the listing page. And you will receive the funds to that paypal account. I am not gonna tell you why I do it and don't care why you want to do it. But it's possible and ebay will not flag you for that. Both paypals have to match addresses though.

Dodik · #15 08-12-2010

If anyone could tell me why it's a bad idea- go ahead. Very curious to find out. By the way, both my paypal accounts are from 2008, so no problems so far.
If you have questions, Ask

Ha "Where is Greenbean" - don't command him like that - he's everywhere needed to be =)

Thanks for your information. I want to know that are your 2 paypal accounts on the same or different names?

I wasn't commanding him. I just miss him.

i would like some input on this as well...i plan to have one ebay account but i would be receiving payments with 14 different paypal accounts.

pod · #20 08-12-2010

haha. You guys are hilarious. No idea what you are up to. My guess is some foolish theory about spreading the money thinly and you will avoid limits. Best of luck!

Yes you can do this.

One of my BEST eBay accounts was created a few years ago and linked to a Paypal account that contains the same info.
THEN when I set up my BIN's or Auctions I list the email address of a different Paypal account.
Yes this works with no problems that I have seen and it has been working for a few years now....
