Change Paypal Email option on Getting Paid

[jesse_dwight]

Hello, I am new to Upwork but I have been doing online jobs for almost 7 months now. I recently noticed that upwork has a payment option for paypal but the gmail account that I have registered with on Upwork is not my email address on paypal. How can I change this? Thanks.

 The PayPal email address and the Upwork email address must match.

So you have two options:

• change your Upwork email address to match the PayPal email address
• add the email address you use for your Upwork account to your PayPal account. you can have several email addresses associated with one PayPal account.
