I use Paypal for all my online invoicing and payments. Paypal is secure, reliable and most important of all – easy to use.
How to set up a Paypal account for your business:
1. print out these instructions
2. click here to Set Up Paypal Business Account
3. scroll down and click where it says: “sign up today”
4. choose whether you want a Personal, Premier or Business account. Personal accounts don’t let you accept credit card payments from customers, so you should choose Premier or Business.
Note: The only difference between Premier and Business is that the Business account allows you to set up the account under your business name. Both types of accounts will allow you to accept credit card payments from your customers. In order to get a Paypal Business account you need to have a business bank account and wait for your Paypal Business Account to be approved. If you don’t yet have a business bank account, you can set your account to “Premier” to get started and then upgrade it to “Business” later.
5. choose your country
6. click Continue
7. fill in all your info
8. click Continue, and then you’re done!
After your account is set up you can pay someone by Paypal, or request payment (send an invoice) just by going to www.paypal.com and logging in to your account. It’s very obvious how to do it. Paypal’s number is (402)-935-2017 but they can only help you if you have a Paypal account

Barbra,
I believe by doing that, your bank account would see the name of the Business that you enter instead of your real name. I don’t know about PayPal but I think this might cause problems with the bank.
Regards.
I think Signing Up with Business name is Premier Account will still require Bank Account with Business Name to process funds in Bank via wire transfer.
