In this comprehensive guide, we’ll walk through every method you can use to accept payment on PayPal, whether it's a personal transfer, a business invoice, or even credit card payments from non-PayPal users.

Once your setup is complete, here's how to accept money on PayPal through various methods:

PayPal's Instant Transfer feature has different limits depending on whether you're transferring to a bank account or a debit card. For debit cards, the maximum per transaction is $5,000, with a daily limit of $5,000, and a monthly limit of $15,000.

You can transfer up to $10,000 per transaction if your account is verified. There may also be additional daily or weekly caps, depending on your account status and region.

Verified users can transfer up to $10,000 per transaction. Business accounts may have higher or no limits, depending on history and region.

Unverified accounts have sending limits, while verified accounts generally have higher limits, with single transactions sometimes capped at $10,000, but potentially allowing up to $60,000.

The maximum daily limit for a verified personal account is $10,000 per transaction. Up to $60,000 per day, depending on account standing and payment method. For unverified accounts, daily sending limits are usually capped at $500 to $1,000.

For unverified accounts, monthly sending and receiving limits are usually capped at $500 USD. Once verified, these limits can be lifted or expanded significantly, often up to $10,000 or more, depending on the user’s activity and trust score.

For users with fully verified accounts, the PayPal maximum transfer amount per transaction is typically $60,000. However, in some cases, PayPal may restrict single transactions to $10,000 depending on the nature of the transaction and risk profile.

For verified accounts, PayPal allows sending up to $10,000 per transaction to friends or family within the U.S. The PayPal Daily transfer limit for this method typically caps at around $60,000, depending on your account status and history.
