How to get paid via PayPal?

    I've been posting on a forum for pay and it is time to pay me. We agreed that payment needs to be made via PayPal, which I have since my days buying stuff on eBay. So how do I get money from him? I've just sent it out for purchases before.

    Does he just need my email and he can send me money, or do I have to have his and send him an invoice? Appreciate if someone can clear this up for me so I can get some money flowing into my account instead of out of it.

    If you have your paypal account already then give him your paypal email id so he send funds to your paypal using that email id. If you haven't one then sign up at paypal with your email address.

    DON.

    Thanks, I take it by email ID, you are talking about my right? I will send it to him again. I don't need to send him an invoice for him to deposit money in my account, correct? He just logs on, gives my email address and sends the funds. That works for me quite nicely!

    Simple:
    - You give him your paypal email address
    - He logs into his account
    - He sends money to your paypal
    - You get the paypal money

    Yes, you can get the payment without sending an invoice. All you've to do is to give your Paypal email address.

    - And that's it! :D

    But I think it will be a costly affair. PayPal will deduct transaction fees for receiving funds. Better way it to add funds via US bank account or add credit card on paypal and enjoy the 50 days credit limit and also save on the transaction fees.
