    Then you already do........ people can send payments from their paypal account directly from their linked credit cards.

    You don´t have to do anything then. If anyones wants to pay you by cc or dc then they just do and you will get credited the money to your account

    If you use the Buy Now button option then the one who wants to pay you through a credit card does not need to have or sign up for a paypal account. If you require them to use the Send Money option in paypal then obviously they need to have an account but if they do not have existing paypal balance, they can pay you through their credit card.

    If you are running a business or selling goods or services, it be better to use the Buy Now button to reduce the likelihood of getting your account limited due to the suspicion of money laundering.

    Logging in and Sending Money is not the proper method of engaging in sale and it has been the main cases of transactions being flagged as suspicious and accounts being limited.

    To create the Buy Now button, you first need to log into Paypal website. After which go to the 'Merchant Services' tab. Click on 'Buy Now Buttons' which is the 2nd link on the right hand side listed under 'PayPal Website Payments Standard'. Then just follow through. Ensure that you keep the button as encrypted so that no one can change the figures without your intervention.

    If you are dealing with non-standard dollar amount then use the 'Request Money' tab and use the 'Create a Money Request' or the 'Create an Invoice' option.

    In the tools there should be a merchant page that has buy buttons and donation buttons.
