How do I make money on PayPal?

You have to sell online or accept donations elsewhere. PayPal is just a wallet, similar to a bank account. If you have an item you want to sell, you list it somewhere online or show it somewhere in person to get an interested buyer… then they can pay you to your PayPal account by purchasing through your online listing (eBay being best for new sellers) or paying an invoice you would send them through paypal. To send an invoice you would log in to PayPal. Click “Send & Request” at the top of the page, and select “Create Invoice”. You need their PayPal email address to send them an invoice. Once they log in to receive the invoice they may chose to pay it or decline/cancel it. If they pay it the sale is protected by PayPal for both the buyer and seller in case the item is not recieved by the buyer or it is recieved not as described (damaged, different item than agreed, etc.)

I hope this helps!
