    Hello. My website is running payments via Paypal and I want people to see organization name instead of my personal name & last name. (or hide this information).
    How I can do this?

    Ok, I will help you with this.

    What you can do is ensure that you add an extra email address in your paypal account which has your organization name.

    In this way when you use this email ID for accepting payments, you will receive the payments in the same account and then you also have a nice looking email Id instead of a personal one.

    Is yours a business or private account? If it's private you'll need to change it to business (you will have to sign up for a new business account, while signing up it will give you an option to choose between a private or business account).

    I am not sure if you can add a business name to a private account. If it's a business account, you can update your info through your profile settings.

    Just upgrade to your business account and you have to submit document for changing name.

    This is one of my pet-peeves with PayPal. You can only use a name other than your first and last if your PayPal account is set as a 'business' account.

    This is the way to go but it also has another advantages as for business accounts they tend to reduce fees per transaction ;)
