Most people already have a PayPal personal account, which allows you to submit payments to a wide variety of services online. However, in order to accept payments with Invoice Simple using PayPal, you will need to have a PayPal business account. This is because only PayPal business accounts are able to accept payments.

PayPal business accounts allow you to accept payments and deposit them in a connected bank account. This is not possible with a PayPal Personal account, which is why a business account is necessary.

The help section on PayPal’s website will give you information on how to set up a business account. Additionally, you can find directions in our setup article here.
