    PayPal Question

    So I have a main PayPal, but I want to create another one. I was just wondering, if I send money from my main PayPal to my new Paypal, would the money would be usable straight away? I remember when I owned a Minecraft Server and when someone bought something off the donation store, I had to wait 30 days until I could use it because it was pending. Or if 5 people sent money to me, my PayPal would be "unlocked", so I could use the money straight away. Could someone please explain this to me exactly? Was it because it wasn't sent as friends and family or something?

    For it to be verified I need to link it to my bank account / pre paid visa which I'm not buying

    When I transfered money from my account to other like month ago, I were able to use them right away but it was like 3€ so that maybe had something to do with that.

    But did you send as friends and family or goods and servies. I need to send it as goods and services.

    I believe you have to wait a certain period of time when linking a bank or using an e-check.

    Told you. You need to receive money 5 times before it goes away.

    You always get it straight away unless Paypal marks the payment as suspicious activities.
