How do I receive money through PayPal?
Please note: Product and feature availability may differ by market. In some countries, certain PayPal services may be available only for cross-border transactions, and receiving money with PayPal requires linking your account to a licensed local partner.
- You can send up to 2 manual invoice reminders per invoice within a 24-hour period. If you've reached this limit, wait 24 hours before sending another reminder
- If you are a new customer in Nigeria please be sure to link to your partner bank to start receiving money.
With PayPal, you receive money when someone pays to your email address or mobile number. Once that happens, we’ll send you a message letting you know you have money available.
You can access the money you receive on your PayPal account home page. You can then choose to:
- Transfer it to your bank account, or
- Keep it in your balance to send money to friends and family or to shop online
To accept the money, you must open a PayPal account and confirm your email address.
To add an additional layer of confidence when receiving payment, we now provide the sender of funds the option to share a link directly with the recipient that the recipient can use to access and redeem their money.
