Run your POS with a PayPal business account

You now have the ability to run your PayPal POS with a PayPal business account. With a PayPal business account, you can manage in-person and online payments in one place using a single login and maintain consistent reporting. This also helps us deliver improvements and our new features faster, so you can continue to run and grow your business with PayPal. 

A PayPal business account allows you to accept payments from customers under your business name and manage both in-person and online transactions using built-in business tools and reporting features.  
It gives you more ways to get paid and manage your money, with fast access to available funds in your PayPal wallet, new additional payment options, and a simplified login and back-office experience.  
If you choose to sign up for a PayPal business account, you will use it to receive funds for your PayPal POS service going forward. As part of the sign-up process, we will transfer your PayPal POS account information (account details, financials and payout information) so you can manage your PayPal POS and funds in your PayPal wallet. 
Note: You can update the transferred financials and the auto-withdrawal settings at any time from your new PayPal business account Money and Wallet pages.

You’ll unlock fast access to your available earnings and additional tools to help you manage cash flow, such as eligibility for PayPal Working Capital and the PayPal business Debit Mastercard®, where available and subject to eligibility and approval. Your PayPal POS sales will now also count toward your PayPal Working Capital eligibility, where applicable. 
You may also get access to manual card entry, where available and subject to eligibility
