Or do they only limit it to one?

If thats the case, should I register my checking account with them? I just want to split my PayPal bills into separate accounts but I don't see an option to add another credit card to your account.

How safe is PayPal, really?


EDIT: Nevermind about adding a 2nd CC, I just found it. You have to add it under "Profile"

The checking account question is still open though

well I have had configured with my checking account for 6 months... no problem yet. And it is much easier to pay and have it come directly from my bank account or when I sell stuff they can deposit it w/o having to wait for a check.... But then again I dont have too much money in it anyways so if somebody were to get in it they couldnt get but a few hundred dollars.

I have a checking account linked to PayPal, it's a seperate, low-balance one though, not the primary account. I don't think I'd be comfortable linking the primary, if for no other reason than "sh!t happens" and I wouldn't want it to happen in that account.
