Pay Pal

[lainey5164]

Hello, I have had an E-Bay account in my maiden name for many years and used to sell. However I now only use it to purchase. I would like to sell some items again, but my Pay Pal account is in my maiden name and my bank accounts are in my married name.  Do I need to create a new Pay Pal account in my Married name? If so how do I remove my old Pay Pal account from my E-Bay account and change to my new account in married name. Many Thanks in advance.

Ebay and paypal are no longer linked.

If you sell, payments will be made to your bank account.

Although, Ebay no longer directly pay to your account and you have to withdraw the proceeds of your sales.

You will need to change your name on Ebay so that it matches the name on your bank account.

Once that is done, you will have to link the bank account to your Ebay account.

If you're new to selling on eBay, see our pages below for more information:

• Updating your bank account details for payouts
• eBay balance
• Payments on hold

  You can change your email address and personal information in the account section of my eBay by selecting Personal information, finding the section you need to update, and selecting Edit. You can also update your information by selecting the button below.
