Description For any more questions, please ask me on ~Kashoune or =chibifiy

Lol, tutorial.

Probably a very stupid one, but OK.
Some people DID have difficulty with creating one, and I hope this one was easy to understand. ;A;'

I fail at making tutorials.

Oh well.

About the description at the end of the tutorial... here's the link with the "How to send money using PayPal" - - > [link]

--EDIT--

Someone asked some doubts that might be quite useful before commenting, which are the following:

Like in your tutorial, is Premier 100% free?
Yes it is. So don't worry if you have to pay for an account.

I don't have a bank account nor credit card. Can I still create an account and go "Go to my account"?
Firstly, if you don't have a bank account nor credit card, you can still receive money from others and keep them on your account. Unless you got a bank account or credit card, your money might possibily automatically go to your bank account or credit card.

What's the purpose with linking to a bank account or credit card?
It's when you receive money via commissions, or via gifts, etc., it will be automatically (Or you have to transfer it) to your bank account or credit card. So with Paypal, you can earn money and you'll get the money on your account or credit card. A good way to earn (extra) money too.

Do I need to put some money on my account before "working" on it?
Nope. So you can just start with your account with no money on your account. c:

More doubts/questions?
Comment or either note. c:

Great tutorial but um... When I started to make a paypal account it only offered Personal or Business and I did personal and that kind of jacked up my account because it went way too awkward for me to set up so I shut it down... I live in the US btw so that's what it only offers.. @3@

foxwafflesdraws [2013-03-24 23:43:29 +0000 UTC]

Um, I'm trying to get a PayPal and I'm using this tutorial to make sure I get everything right ^.^
But on the screen that asks for country and language, it only shows the following two options:
PayPal for Personal Use: Get a personal account for personal use.
PayPal for Business and Nonprofits: Get a business account for use by businesses and nonprofit organizations.

I click on the personal one, right?
They don't have the Personal/Premier/Business option anymore, just personal and business...

I think I got the second one....well, I can create a button to sell something, but from there I don't know what else I have to do if I do a comission and must receive the payment.
Do you know what should I have to do?

And thankies for the tutorial.

I have two accounts and I usually take two completely seperate commissions on them. I've been looking into using the new "commissions widget" on my second account, and then ill send it to my Paypal. But, I've already used my Paypal on my other account. Do you know if you can use the same PayPal for two seperate accounts? I'm worried that dA will think I'm cheating them or something!

NoodleBeri [2013-01-25 20:03:05 +0000 UTC]

I've been wanting to do commission, but it kind confuses me a little.
If the money goes on your bank account, how long does it take to transfer?
And do you start to commission after they say they payed or start when you get the money???

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Kashoune In reply to NoodleBeri [2013-08-02 13:15:27 +0000 UTC]

It takes approx. 1~2 business days to transfer. No fees applied either!


I start commissions only when I received clear payment. C:

Do you have to do anything when someone gives you money? Like an 'accepting' button or something?

WagginKennelClub In reply to RidicBird [2013-03-15 00:37:08 +0000 UTC]

I don't think you have to . It sends an email notifying you that someone has sent you money

You can still do commissions! Plus you can always upgrade to Premier - there is a button lurking around there somewhere......

We have detected an error in the link or button that you just used. This error is often caused when a link is split between two lines. To function properly, the full link must be entered into your browser window.

To properly enter the link:
1.Copy and paste the first line of the URL into the address bar of your browser window.
2.Copy and paste the second line in the address bar of the same browser window, directly after the first line.
3.Make sure there are no spaces in the newly formed link.
