Receiving money from Paypal?

Question

I'm paid for online work via PayPal. I know I can only get 5 payments per year, which won't be enough, when from a debit/credit card. But what is this PayPal Balance/eCheck? Does that mean if the other person has a regular account, he can transfer the money from one account to the other, without fees or limits on the number of transfers?

Answer 1

Why can you only get 5 payments per year?  I thought you could get as many payments as you need.  I only thought that you could transfer money without fees with paypal to paypal transfers not using credit cards/debit cards...

It sounds shady that the company paying you couldn't direct deposit into an actual bank account.  You get a checking account just for this purpose and then transfer the money to another account you use for your bills
