Setting Seller Preferences
Your Seller Preferences let you customize everything from
the look and feel of your payment pages to the types of
payments you receive. To set your Seller Preferences, log
in to your account, click on the
Profile sub-tab of the My
Account tab, and select Seller Preferences.
You can customize the payment pages your buyers see
when completing their payment through PayPal. You can
match the colors and images on these website payment
pages to those of your own site, providing buyers with
a seamless checkout experience. For details, go to the
Custom Payment Page
s in the Advance Merchant Tools sec-
tion of this guide.
Seller Preferences also lets you manage the types of pay
-
ments you receive, and set your Credit Card Statement
Name, which is the name displayed on your customer’s
credit card statements when they pay you through PayPal.
The name will appear as PAYPAL <*YOURNAMEHERE>, and
can be up to 11 alpha-numeric characters.
TIP: By making sure your Credit Card Statement Name is meaningful
to your buyers, you can lower the risk of your buyers filing chargebacks
against you.
