Maximum sales stealth paypal can handle?

[osake]

I plan on processing about £20,000 per month with stealth paypal, is that possible? If not what is maximum good paypal stealth can handle? And on average how long do paypal stealth accounts last? I'm only using paypal to accept payments on my websites, not using for any ebay related stuff.

If you are planning on doing this with a new account forget it. Wont happen.

Yeah.. I foresee some issues if you try to process too many transactions from the get-go. PayPal likes a slow increase in sales. Not 20k right from the start.

I suggest opening a "real" business account if possible. If your accepting payments directly from your website as well, this can link your website to your PayPal account, it's domain name. So if anything happens to this PayPal, you will have trouble with future PayPal accounts unless you use a 3rd party processor to handle payments for you. That's something else though.

Already know how to get around paypal detecting my real website so that wont be an issue. Initially how much could I process with stealth account? £2k-£3k monthly?

20,000? that should be fine......

spread across a ton of accounts! never sale that much on any one account

About $20,000 in sales spread across 10-15 accounts shouldn't be that bad..

May run into other unforeseen problems though.

I'd be surprised if you could even make it to a fraction of £20,000 in your first month

20,000 spread out on 200 accounts sounds pretty reasonable..

I agree.

It could have been done years back maybe but not anymore.

If it does it would be one lucky account as that kind of money will draw flags like crazy.

What?

If this website has had a paypal on it previously, you have hassles.

You can never use paypal and not expect issues.

Unless your items on that website preclude other payment processors, then you should have a variety of choices.

What about if accounts had real details? So with permission of family member/friend I use their address/name to verify account? Will never actually submit any docs, but since all details are real wouldn't paypal only request for bank verification and nothing more?

isn't 200 abit excessive? Figured about 5-10 would do the trick, with 10 each stealth would only need to process about £2k per month, already got a stealth doing £2k monthly for the past 6-7 months, so far no issues.
