How to Know If a PayPal Buyer is Confirmed Before Invoicing
PayPal is an online payment service that is used to send and receive payments for Web-based transactions. It is a popular online payment choice because of its widespread usage and purchase protection policies. PayPal uses a variety of methods to confirm the identity of users so you are protected from fraudulent buyers. Although PayPal doesn't explicitly require that a buyer have a confirmed address to be eligible for seller protection, it is a good idea to ensure that the user you are selling to has a confirmed account before sending the invoice.
