Prerequisites for setup

Before we get started, there are a few things you should know about how PayPal works and how it can help your business.

• You must be 18 years old or older to open a merchant account with them.
• You must have an email address that is valid, verifiable and unique to your business (i.e., not an @gmail or @yahoo address). This will be the only way they communicate with you regarding your account status and transactions–so make sure it works!
• Your bank account must be located in the same country as where your business is based (i.e., if you’re from America but living in Thailand, don’t try to use that Thai bank account). If this requirement doesn’t apply to you then great! Just keep reading
