PayPal account

[yurucan]

Hello, I'm trying to open PayPal individual business account.

PayPay moderator advises to fill "Business name" field with my own name  which on the bank card.

Question: will buyer see my real name or eBay nickname  when paying ?  

Thank you

May I ask you what benefit you see to opening a Business account with Paypal as opposed to a personal one?

I have personal account as a buyer, but, as far as I understand, to sell I must have individual business account.

I have been selling on eBay for more than six years using a personal account. As I understand there may be certain uses to a business account, it’s not necessary nor is it required.

Thank you so much for your help. I'm trying to figure out on how to sell on eBay. I was confused by PayPal website: to accept payments you should move from personal to individual business account. You saved my time. Happy New Year to you!!
