    Do you mean you're adding a Paypal button? I sell my services with the Premier account. The business account I believe you need an EIN for.

    I'm in the UK and I set up a PayPal Business Account as a sole trader.

    So there was no tax reference or really anything like that required.

    If you're doing business, I'd opt for a business account... functionally it's basically the same... I just want to make absolutely sure they don't freeze my account, and a business account just gives you that extra boost in credibility.

    In my humble opinion

    Some countries allow olny personal and buisness , but you can chose premier too if its been shown to you at the sign-up.
    Both the Premier and Business Paypal account allows you to sell. The main difference is that the Business account is for registered businesses or incorporated companies to sign up and the Premier account is for private individual who does not have or operate a registered business or incorporate company.

    Premier if you dont have a company registered.
    Business if you already have a valid company registered.

    Both work the same, the only difference is:
    Premier: It will show your email Id during checkout
    Business: It will show your Company name during checkout.

    I use business, but then again this is not a big deal as long as you dont use "personal" account :-)

      Just as Suthan said!

      Premier is working well for me!

      So if you don't have a business registered yet decide for premiere!

    If you plan on doing any sort of medium to large volume then a Business account is best.

    hi
    it depends.
    If you have a proper registered business then go for the Business account. If you do not, then use Premier account. I use premier account and my email shows up at checkout.
    hope that helps

    If you have company registered, better use Business..
    If you don't have company registered, better use premier..

    for personal, better use premier...

    IMHO

    I've heard that you can sign up as a business account even if you don't have a registered business,
    but I'd choose Premier if that's the case.
