Premier or Business account?

    Here's my scenario:

    I have developed a website sort of like eBay and I will be taking a commission from each sale via PayPal. The name on the PayPal account would be my website's name.

    Should I use a Premier or Business account for this?

    Business account is always best as it won't display your email address but the business name. Way more serious for customers.

    I have to agree. People will trust you more, which means more sales.

    Business account for sure. I'm not sure about the fees, but a business account would only make your business more credible.

    A business account does allow for credit card payments. You only pay extra with PayPal (about $30) if you want to embed their system seamlessly into your website.

    Business account of course. It will look like you're more serious in doing business. Also, you can gain more sales using business account.

    Paypal business account definitely. I am not sure if you have to pay extra or not, but I do know that this is a lot better than a premier account if you want to be taken seriously by buyers on the internet forums.
