How to Delete a PayPal Account

PayPal is a web-based business that allows users to send and receive payment online without giving out bank account or credit card information to any entities other than PayPal. Many online retailers and businesses such as eBay and Overstock accept PayPal as a method of payment. PayPal also offers a debit card that can be used with online retailers that do not accept PayPal or at local businesses. You may close your PayPal account if it does not have funds or if there are unresolved issues.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• PayPal Account

1. Open the PayPal website. Enter your email address and password in the appropriate fields on the left side of the page.

2. Click on the "Profile" button on the toolbar at the top of the page. Click on the "Close Account" link under the "Account Information" section on the left side of the page.

3. Confirm your identity by entering a card or account number that is linked to your account. You will not be allowed to close the account without this information.

4. Confirm the deletion of your account on the next page. You will not be able to reinstate your account once it is deleted.
