    How to change the name on Paypal email account

    I have created my personal Paypal account and I am going to use this account for receiving funds in exchange of selling mini-projects on-line. But I dont want to show my name through my Paypal email account. So how can I change the name in my Paypal email account ?

    Any ideas !!!

    I would advice you to keep a business name instead of your personal name as your Paypal email address. Go to the paypal website and change the email address that you want to use for the site. I think there is an option to add an email address, so that you would have two email address under single Paypal account and select the one you want to show.

    Upgrade to a Premier account (which is charged fees like a Business account, but still uses your individual name instead of a business name).With this, you can modify the name which is shown on your customers' credit card statements.

    To edit your Credit Card Statement name,
    - login to your Premier or Business account
    - click on the Profile link
    - select Payment Receiving Preferences
    - scroll-down to the section where it shows - Credit Card Statment name that is currently being used for payments you receive
    - you can edit both the regular statement name and extended statement name to better match your company or website name.

    If you use a Premier account, your customers would continue to see your email address displayed in the place of business name during the payment process, and would see your (individual) name in their account's History if they made the payment using a paypal account.
