How to Convert Amazon Payments to PayPal
Amazon offers three ways to receive payments from its affiliate program at time of publication. You can request a check, order an Amazon gift card or choose direct deposit into a bank account. You do not send money directly to PayPal. However, if you have PayPal, you can withdraw from that same account and transfer it to PayPal. PayPal first requires you to link the bank account to your PayPal account.

Tips & Warnings
Click the "Unverified" link near the top the screen to verify your information with PayPal. Verification removes the monthly transfer limits so you can transfer as much money as you want.
