I Gave paypal my documents a few weeks ago, I think If you send/recieve a large portion of money, they make sure your the real person and not some fraudster
abusing the system.

Once you start processing larger volumes with Paypal you have to go through an extra validation process. We did it a few years ago. It wasn't that painful

A few years ago I remember having to jump through hoops for PayPal when I had sold over 5K and it had something to do with EU regulations.

Just a quick question.

When setting up an ecommerce what is the process.......
As in can you get a merchant account with paypal or is it best to go to a bank and then have paypal link into that or what way does it work

Normally what I'd recommend most clients do is go to their bank and set up a merchants bank account

Then approach realex to set up an account with them

Then integrate that into your ECommerce solution (hate buzz words)

A few people at the moment I've set up with Paypal processing pretty much the same set of instructions
Though if the volume of trade increases as you can see from this thread you'll have to fill in a good few extra details
