My current paypal account I use for ebay mostly, but a lot of the times people are sending me payments for work from their balance and I'm getting ripped off. I just opened a second checking account which I could link my second paypal account too....so I Could have one "personal" account on top of my existing premiere account.

Anyone else do this? Is it worth it? The debit card gives me something like 1% cash back but that doesn't cover the 3-4% in fees ....

Opinions? :) thanks!

Yes, Paypal allows you to have both a personal and upgraded (e.g. Premier or Business) account.

You will just need:
- a different e-mail address
- a separate bank account linked to each Paypal account.

I don't have the link, but it is actually part of Paypal's policy and totally legit with them.

Yes and yes.

My wife has two Paypal accounts (which they allow) one personal and one premier, works great.
