BANK ACCOUNT VERIFICATION
When we link your PayPal account to your bank account, PayPal will temporarily deposit two small sums (less than $1) into your account. Once the amounts are deposited, the amounts are entered into your PayPal account's verification tool. This is an added security measure, which also allows for some more features:

Make instant payments funded from your bank account.

Transfer funds from your bank account to your PayPal account.

Become verified and raise withdrawal limits.

After your account is setup, we will contact you to learn the value of these two deposit amounts, in order to complete this verification step.

SECURITY QUESTIONS
Adding security questions help PayPal to know when a valid attempt is made to log into your account. In our experience, your account can be frozen (which means your shop doesn't work for that time) if PayPal suspects an invalid login, even if it is valid - e.g. if you log in from a different device. At that point, the security questions are required to un-freeze the account. So we prefer to set them up at the start and avoid hold-ups like this to your shop wherever possible.

However, if you feel more comfortable, you can log in to the account yourself and add the security questions after setup.
Please select and create answers to 2 of the 5 security questions below:
- Name of your first school
- Name of your first pet
- Name of the hospital where you were born
- Name of your favourite childhood cuddly toy
- Name of your first honeymoon location
Name of your first school
Name of your first pet
Name of the hospital where you were born
Name of your favourite childhood cuddly toy
Name of your first honeymoon location
IDENTITY CONFIRMATION

PayPal may need to confirm your identity as the account holder.

Note: If you prefer to do this yourself without our assistance or legwork, you can log in and do so once the account is created.
Are you happy for us to complete this step with you?*
- Yes
- No
Your preferred method*
- Automated phone call
- Provide proof of name and date of birth
We will arrange with you a time when you will be available for this, as the automated phone call requires a request and security key with a time expiration.
Proof of identity documents must be not older than 6 months - scans of these can be uploaded to PayPal, following which there is a wait time for processing.
We do our best to be thorough with this form, so we can be efficient and avoid flooding your inbox with questions during the setup of your account. However, PayPal are often updating their account information requirements, so we'll contact you if we need any further information.
