    Hi guys ,

    I got some questions about paypal , you see recently i upgrade my account to premier in order to be able to add subscriptions for some of my sites and also accept donations etc..

    In the first day when i was testing my account to see how it works i noticed that when i sent or received money the field of "Name/Email" from the transcaction history showed in each case the name rather than the email . What i want to ask is : when i'll create a subscription the buyer will see the name of mine or could i add the name of the website of mine?
    I ask that cuz into the premier account features it said that i could do bussiness under my name or company or group name.
    So could it be possible ?
    Ps:
    Something more , i added a new email and made it primary will the log-in email still be the first one that i used to register on paypal or the new primary that i have now? :p

    Sorry if my questions sound noobish but i am new to paypal.
    Plz advice

    I think that the feature you can do business under your name is for business account not for premier account. and when you sign up for business account or upgrade to it, they'll ask to enter your company or business name. this feature doesn't come with premier account.

    according to paypal's policy you can't i think but one of my friend has business account. he just put a business name there. you can put your site name but i'm not sure about paypal's policy about this matter.

    If you are still looking for answers then the best thing to do is to Mail/Call Paypal Support Team.
    I guess business accounts charges more fees so make sure you dont end up paying more fees compared to amount credited.

    I will advice you to use a PERSONAL ACCOUNT because one of my friend told that paypal cuts no charges for recieving and sending money through paypal personal account.

    Business and premier paypal account charges are same and bit high.
    You can check your paypal charge from this site
    www.ppcalc.com

    Well the Personal account has some limits on the transactions as i recall and also doesn't have some extra tools like subscriptions etc..:rolleyes:
    That was the reason that i upgrated my account to Premier.

    I send them an email near 2 days ago but still no reply :(

    Thats why you are allowed to have both personal and premier/business accounts.
    Its weekend and so I guess it can take some time.
