Follow these easy step-by-step instructions to create your own PayPal account.
1. Visit www.PayPal.com and click on the Sign Up link.
2. Select the account type that best fits your needs. We suggest creating a “Business” or “Premiere” account.
3. Select the country or region in which you live.
4. Click the “Continue” button.
5. Fill out the required information such as your name, address, telephone number and email address. The email address you type into this form will be used to log into your PayPal Account. You will also create your PayPal password on this page. From the pull down menu choose a security question and then type the answer to the question in the “Answer” box. You will have to retype the answer EXACTLY as you type it here if you forget your password to your PayPal account.
6. After you have filled out all of the required information, click the “I agree, Create My Account” button.
7. To continue you need to confirm your e-mail address. After you confirm your email address, you can send money for FREE, accept unlimited credit card and bank account payments, use special tools for sellers, and receive exclusive customer service hotline help 7 days a week. You will be subject to a low fees for receiving payments.
PayPal will send an e-mail to the e-mail address you provided on the previous screen. Check your email and look for a message from PayPal titled “Activate Your PayPal Account!” Inside that e-mail is a link you will need to click to activate your account. Click the link.
8. After you click the link you will be redirected back to PayPal’s web site. You will be asked to enter the PayPal password you created in Step #5. Enter the password now and click the “Confirm” button.
9. Once successfully confirmed you will see PayPal’s “Email Confirmed” screen. If you see this screen, click the “Continue” button.
Congratulations! You have successful created a PayPal Account!
10. You are now looking at the “My Account” screen. This page shows you all of your account activity including any new orders you may receive.
