Question Best Front Business for Paypal

[garyg]

Hey Guys,

As you know paypal loves to block accounts and keep peoples money for 180 days.

Is there anything they actually do like? and are happy to sell?

If I had a buisness that could be perfect for there long list of T's and C's what would it be?

Regards
G

Hi,

I'd say that anything has a working tracking is okay. Don't sell anything risk-related like gaming, adult content or whatever. No digital products. Avoid restrictions by not shipping worldwide. Don't sell cigarettes, alcohol or anything else coming from a restricted country. Don't even use the name of a restricted country that or a country that has problems with USA.

Reply to every dispute and don't send money to other people via friends and family. Don't send friends and family or products and services to Africans or Chinese. PayPal seems to absolutely hate that.

Perfect business? Yeah, pretty hard to find. I'd go with something absolutely normal like low-cost clothing. Pretty much no restrictions, no fakes available and probably an average of 50-100 USD per sale.

I spent a bit of time looking into what is considered 'high-risk' by Paypal. To be honest it's almost like they don't want to take any business going by what is considered good/bad. Clothing is something that has been considered.

PayPal sucks to work with when it comes to high risk business i.e. porn, pharma, casino so forth. Even a simple plumber service would suck using paypal.

Frontstore: I would find some professional we designers, spend the 2 or 3K to get something setup that looks real and really professional, so I would find another product to sell which is not considered high risk to mix the transactions.

Yup, that is what the focus is now. Quality over quantity as we have burned through a number of stealth PP accounts in the last 3 months alone.
