Being verified means you’ve confirmed your identity with PayPal. Because verification increases security on PayPal, once you’re verified you can:

• Raise your sending and withdrawal limits

• Increase credibility with sellers and buyers

• List items in other markets

Here's how to get PayPal Verified:

• Log in to your PayPal account

• Click on the 'Get Verified' link under the heading 'Activate Account'

• Enter your bank details and review the PayPal Direct Debit agreement

• PayPal will then deposit two small amounts into your bank account within five working days, which you should note

• Log in to your PayPal account and tell PayPal what these two amounts are

Important:, You may need to be PayPal Verified and have your eBay account linked to your PayPal account to:

• Confirm your identity

• List an item on a different eBay site from the one you initially registered on
