Should I Use a Personal or Business PayPal Account?
You can connect to a personal or business PayPal account. We recommend using a PayPal Business account if you want more control about what information is shared by PayPal when you receive a payment. Upgrading to business can be done from your PayPal dashboard and allows you to control the name and email shown on PayPal screens and emails.
