    How many paypal accounts can i have?

    I currently have 1 Premier paypal account.

    Also, i have an important question. I sell alot of stuff online and i get paid through Paypal. Then there are people that open disputes and chargeback.

    So what i can do is get paid through my Premier account, and then i can send the money to New paypal account? Would that work?

    Also, if they do chargeback, will any of my account be affected?

    Thanks.

    No, it doesn't matter.
    What are you selling with Paypal?

    If there is a dispute or a chargeback and the buyer wins the case, the money would be deducted from your premier account and if you do not have the balance, it would get limited. No matter what you do, you probably have to restore at least a zero balance on your paypal account when that happens. What you are planning to do would probably not resolve anything or protect you from anything.

    you can have only 2 paypal account. 1 business or Premier and personal account. If you need more 2 then open using your wife/mothers name. But you MUST have a strong documents if paypal ask that you can proof ASAP both different person. If you are from US then you are lucky. bcoz I believe paypal is only reliable for USA :D

    ppl do NOT disputes and chargeback always, if you have 1/2% disputes and chargeback you must have a strong documents and management you should WIN the case.

    I have 3 accounts and all of them are verified. If your account is verified by a credit card or bank account, when the buyers charge back, there is a danger of paypal taking money from your credit card or bank account for that matter. Beware of paypal.
