Wii i able to change my paypal id? That is to edit the email id which i have used during the registration of my paypal id. I mean to change it to another id? Is this possible???

Login to PayPal, across the top menu under 'My Account' hover over 'Profile' and select 'Add or remove email'.

Here, click on the add button and follow the steps, after this you will need to confirm that is it your email (PayPal will send a link to you). Click the link and go back to where you added the new email.

Select the new email and select 'Default'. You can now delete your old PayPal email.

You should first add your another email ID and then confirm it . Later after confirming ,make your seconf email ID as primary and then you can delete your first one .

One can use as much as 8 different e-mail ids with a single Paypal account. This is particularly beneficial if one has several websites and like to use a particular payment id for that particular website. It gives a good professional touch !

That's correct. You can add upto 8 email addresses in your paypal account but you are only allowed to select one primary email address through which you will be able to transact.

You cannot change it completely. But you can add a new email id to your current account. Or else, you can create a new account for your new mail id, and transfer all your funds fro your old account to it.

Yes you can change it just go to my account. Then find profile then add an email id. However changing paypal name, you cant change it. You must email paypal first.

You can add upto 8 email addresses in your paypal account. However, you got to choose 1 primary email address through which you can transact.

Yes you have to make 1 primary email address through which you can transact but you can receive payments on all the added email addresses.
