Setting up or linking a PayPal Business Account

Setting up or linking a PayPal Business Account

To receive payments on Elevate Golf, every Coach must have a PayPal Business Account. This ensures payouts are processed securely and efficiently.

During onboarding, Coaches are directed to PayPal’s login page. An existing PayPal Business Account can be linked at this stage. If a Business Account has not yet been created, PayPal provides a simple setup process before linking back to Elevate Golf.

It is strongly recommended that Coaches request PayPal’s micro-transaction rate, which is more favourable for payments under $10. This helps reduce fees and ensures that a greater share of each Tip goes directly to the Coach.

All payment processing is handled by PayPal. Elevate Golf does not have access to personal financial details and cannot resolve account-specific issues. For further support, Coaches should visit www.paypal.com to find guidance, log in to manage their account, or scroll to the bottom of the site and select Contact to reach PayPal Customer Support.

By setting up and linking a PayPal Business Account correctly, Coaches ensure that payments flow smoothly, with earnings transferred directly when a Tip request has been received.
