How do I configure my Paypal account?

To begin, you will have to choose an email address to create your Paypal account under.
This email will be used to login to your account and to receive notification. Do not use a staff personal email address. We recommend using a generic address to which your accountant has access to such as: admin@mycompany.com

Creating your account

• Step 1: Click here to create your Account.
• Step 2: Choose your country and language, under the business box, click get started.
