    Hi, i want share with the community how you can check if an account of paypal is verified before you send or receive money:

    https://www.paypal.com/us/verified/pal=PAYPALACCOUNT

    Only replace the "PAYPALACCOUNT" for the email of the user.

    I hope somebody helps.

    I think this is useless since each time we logon to paypal account we can see our account status.
    Let's say you want to look at other accounts, what is that use for?
    Unverified accounts are not able to receive money.
    Please correct me if I'm wrong

    You know if your account is verified.

    Login and then it should say whether it is verified or unverified.

    I think this is for the user your sending money to, and not your account. This is useful if your going to buy services. If the account is verified, then you build a little more trust in the supplier.

    This can also be checked just before you send the money. It will tell you the registered name and if the account is verified or not.
