    Is this possible? I'm using a pen name with my infoproduct business and i dont want ppl to get a wrong impression... Is there a way to hide my real name when a potential customer comes on my order/checkout paypal page?

    Tnx

    The name on your PayPal account should match on the nane registered on your bank account. If it does not match, who will have a huge problem transferring your money.

    I dont think there is any way to hide your name. Dont try using a fake name or anything like that as there could be problems in the future..
    If you want to keep your name private, you should get a business account.

    Are there any other differences between personal Paypal accounts and business accounts?
