Before I started my online journey, I never believed people can earn money online.
The main reason was,
I didn’t know how to get the cash in hand.
Then I came across PayPal.
Paypal helps you transfer the money you earn to your bank a/c in India.
In this post, I’ll show you how to create & verify your paypal a/c in India.
After following this guide you’ll be able to:
- Create your new PayPal a/c
- Link your Bank a/c to it
- Verify your account for receiving payments
Watch the video below (click play) to see the whole process.
Why you need a paypal a/c?
If you work online from India, companies abroad cannot directly send money to your bank account.
So, they use PayPal.
How to use Paypal?
After you create your PayPal a/c, if someone needs to send you money, you just have to give them your PayPal email.
Your Paypal email is the email which you used when creating your paypal account.
It acts like an account number for PayPal.
What is PayPal?
Paypal is an online service used to transfer money worldwide.
Opening your new PayPal account :
First, make sure you have these two things:
- Your PAN card
- and a Bank account (which matches your name on the PAN card)
If you don’t have a PAN card, learn how to apply for a PAN card here. There is no age limit for PAN, so anyone can apply.
Follow the steps below to open a PayPal a/c :
- Create a new account by going to paypal.com and clicking on the sign up button.
- Next, click the ‘Get Started’ button for individuals.
- Fill up the form.
Note: Enter your first and last name exactly as it appears on your PAN card. Make sure it matches your name on your bank a/c. (If your bank account has only your initials, enter its full form in paypal.)
Your paypal a/c is now ready!
Once you’ve created your new paypal account, the next step is to verify it, so that you can receive payments.
Verifying your Paypal a/c :
Follow the steps given below to verify your paypal a/c.
1) Add PAN Card
Enter your PAN number and click submit to confirm.
2) Verify your email
– Go back to the task board and select the next step to verify your Email.
– Open a new tab, and login to your email account.
– A PayPal confirmation mail will appear.
– Click on the activation link, enter your password, and choose your security questions and answers.
3) Enter Purpose Code
Go back to the task board.
– Click the ‘start’ button next to ‘Provide Purpose code’.
– Select the purpose code based on the nature of your work.
– If you’re earning through affiliate programs, choose advertising and market research.
– Click save.
4) Add Bank A/C
Once again, go back to the task board & click start.
– Enter your bank a/c number.
– If you know your bank’s IFSC code, just enter it. Or Else, select No and enter your bank’s name & choose your branch.
– Click on review and submit.
After doing this, paypal will make two small deposits to your bank a/c. So, wait for 2 to 3 days and then check your bank statement.
Once you find the amounts credited to your bank a/c.
– Login to paypal and under profile, click on “Edit Bank Account”.
– Now, enter the same values which were credited to your bank a/c.
– Click Confirm.
Congrats! You’ve now successfully linked your bank to your paypal a/c.
Your paypal a/c is now verified. From now on, all the money sent to your paypal account will automatically be credited to your bank a/c.
We hope this post helps you create and verify your PayPal account.

May Be your Debit card is not valid for international transaction, paypal don’t take debit cards which don’t have international transaction,Infact paypal rarely takes any debit card(Some Debit cards works i.e if its of ICICI Bank or Citi bank Or HDFC Bank etc), Credit cards has the more Percentage of getting your work done.
But I want To tell You One Thing , I know Most of the indian people want paypal account only for receiving payments.If you want to buy anything only then there is a need of linking Debit/Credit card to your Paypal account. If you Just want To Receive payments Via Paypal Then There Is No need of Linking Those, the Only Thing You need is a Bank Account(If it is From ICICI Bank Perfect but Doesn’t Matter All Others Are Also Working). And Yes Most Important Point The Name On Your Pan Card Must match the Name On Your Bank Account. Otherwise You Will Face Problem.
My age is 17, paypal doesn’t allow to create an account below 18 if i’ll use my age as 18 will it create any trouble? cos my bank account will show my age as 17
There won’t be any problem.
i want to follow ur instruction but i haven’t paypal account …..
This post is a must for all the Indian online earners & so I gave it a link from one of my posts. I hope more & more people read this to understand paypal & creating an account with it to receive money & genuinely according to the guidelines of RBI. Thanks

Hi Shyam 🙂
Is this opportunity is only for the people who live in India? or other countries can avail this also? I’m from Philippines and I’m interested to it. Hope to receive your response and if ever please do give some other tips.

I’m not sure which opportunity you’re talking about here. But this specific article is relevant only for Indians. Because the procedure for opening a paypal account is different in India due to government regulations.
Really amazing
how to enter the first name and last name

Enter first name as GURU and your complete last name (expand the initials).
PLEASE NOTE: If your bank account has only your initials, enter its full form in Paypal.
