  @Zmeinir Exactly and correct. I've used paypal for ages now and I never got an issue, and I tried my best to adapt to it over the years. I have no idea how people manage to ban their accounts and then complain paypal is the problem and not the way they're using it.

  @Zmeinir @ScruffyTurtles That said, I’ve never sent artwork via PayPal (out of pure ignorance); I send it by email or via a temporary link, especially if it involves N5FW or saucy illustration, since Google can be triggered just like PayPal and shut down your email account.

  @Andino_SKB I meant keeping it in there like it's a bank account, if you use PayPal it's common Knowledge that you move what's in there into your bank asap because of these issues.

  $PYPL Conference Call Wrapup: PayPal beat and raised the full year, and the story still has a problem: EPS still fell 1% to $1.38, and next quarter they guide it DOWN double digits. Revenue +5%, but the earnings line is going backward while the guide goes up. Read past the raise.

The company still swung to a GAAP net loss of $428 million, or 67 cents a share, as a $280 million charge tied to the Air Force One program pushed the adjusted loss to 76 cents a share versus the 30-cent loss analysts expected. Commercial deliveries climbed 14% to 171 planes, and free cash flow turned positive at $631 million versus a $200 million burn a year ago. Shares jumped 4.7% to $221.53. 2. Sherwin-Williams $SHW grew Q2 sales 7.5% to $6.79 billion and posted adjusted EPS of $3.70, topping estimates of $3.50 on $6.61 billion. The paint maker raised full-year adjusted EPS guidance to $11.80-$12.20, up from $11.43 in 2025. The stock surged 8.2% to $354.24. 3. PayPal $PYPL delivered Q2 revenue of $8.68 billion, up 5% year over year and ahead of the $8.47 billion estimate, with non-GAAP EPS of $1.38 versus $1.28 expected. Total payment volume rose 10% to $486.4 billion and transactions climbed 8% to 6.8 billion. Management raised full-year EPS guidance to $5.30-$5.40 from $5.15-$5.30. Shares gained 4.0% to $58.32. 4.

  @bubblegum711971 The PayPal algorithm will look for keywords like 'commission' or 'artwork' because they're trying to crack down on people using the app for NSFW commissions So long as you make it look like the payments are all for regular stuff, you should be safe

  A ton of companies reported this morning. Let’s get into it: Coca-Cola $KO is up 6% after probably the cleanest beat and raise of the morning. Organic revenue +6%, volumes +5%, margins expanded to 35.6%, and guidance went up across organic growth, EPS and free cash flow. PayPal $PYPL is up 4% after beating on revenue and EPS, with payment volume growing nearly 10%. But it still has a profitability problem. Operating margins contracted 248 bps and active accounts declined slightly. Boeing $BA missed EPS badly but is up 3% because cash flow is finally moving in the right direction. $631M of FCF versus negative $200M last year, deliveries increased to 171, debt declined and backlog reached a record $715B. Then you have the companies where the headline numbers looked good but the details did not. UPS $UPS beat EPS and raised full-year guidance, yet the stock is down 7%. Package volume fell 3.6%, fuel expense jumped 60%, and domestic cost per piece increased 8%. Centene $CNC beat EPS by more than 2x and raised guidance, but is down 11%. The stock had already rallied 45% this year, so a lot of the recovery was clearly priced in. S&P Global $SPGI grew revenue 10%, with Ratings up 14%, but fell 5% as the Mobility spin-off created uncertainty around the new earnings base. Corning $GLW was another strong one. Sales +17%, Optical Communications +32%, and Q3 guidance implies 28% EPS growth. Hubbell also raised guidance as grid modernization and data-center spending continue to drive demand. Investors are rewarding clean guidance upgrades, margin expansion and cash conversion. They are punishing weaker volumes, rising costs and any uncertainty around what the earnings base actually looks like from here.

  Wondering if OP is a minor cause that might also be a reason on paypal's limitation. Aside from other issues like kofi donations and nsfw comms, i also saw some issues where paypal limits ur acc if you made an acc before you're 18. Correct me if im wrong abt this.

  Question regarding the whole PayPal issue atm— let’s say an artist only opens commissions on occasion, like every 2-3 months, could they still get in trouble/banned? I myself have been doing it this way and I’m honestly just as lost as everyone else..

  This here is why you don’t trust people. People would have blown it up if it was 200 and editing the screenshot makes you out to be a lair. Now that everyone knows this, they may think your either faking the whole thing or that your account is being rightfully banned since if you lied to everyone for attention, it could mean you lied to a client that reported you which made you be in this situation. Also, I do have to say, in the situation where my personal account was being banned, the PayPal support team here on Twitter saved my account when I tagged them into the original post so saying PayPal Live agents do not care if you provided documents/proof again makes me feel like a client reported you for taking their money and not providing the goods and since it is a personal account and not business, you are going to lose that account and there is no way of stopping it and if you create another one, they’ll ban it too. Had my personal PayPal account since early 2000s, PayPal support helped me get access back from my ex-husband, when I went through a similar thing the Twitter PayPal support fixed it, and I’ve never had a single problem with PayPal business. I’m posting it like this because the person locked their comments.

  What Would Happen If Elon Musk Had Been Born in China? This is Mr. Ma, a barbecue chef at a restaurant in Tongchuan, Shaanxi Province. Because he looks strikingly like Elon Musk, a customer took his photo and uploaded it online, unexpectedly making him famous. He said that over the past two days, more than a dozen people have asked to take photos with him, while several others have approached him about possible collaborations. In fact, there have long been many discussions on the Chinese internet about what would have happened if Elon Musk had been born in China. One fairly representative article argued: "Let us suppose that, in 1971, twenty people with the same potential as Elon Musk were also born into ordinary Chinese families. "If they were fascinated by science and technology, the most they could probably do would be to join an extracurricular hobby group at a children’s activity center and build model airplanes. "In 1981, a computer cost tens of thousands of yuan. There was absolutely no way an ordinary Chinese family could afford one. "It would not be until the 1990s that they might finally get access to computers in a school computer lab, where one hour of use could cost about as much as an entire meal. "But students had to attend morning reading sessions every day and evening self-study classes at night. Where would they find the time to learn programming? "Besides, what if they spent all their time messing around with these 'useless' things and then failed to get into a good university? 'A mild-tempered father might patiently lecture them: 'Focus on your studies. Stop wasting your time on improper pursuits,' until they finally gave up on their own. "A bad-tempered father would simply confiscate everything. If they dared to argue, he would grab something and beat them. "From the first grade onward, they would have to devote all their energy to exam scores. Otherwise, they might not even make it into university. "By the time they finally entered college, all their sharp edges would have been worn away. They would have been molded into conformity and would have had almost no chance of becoming another Elon Musk. "If Musk had been placed in China, his life would probably have followed a path like this: "No one would have paid for software like Zip2, an online city-guide and business-directory platform. Lenovo would not have acquired it. It would have ended up like Zhang Xiaolong’s Foxmail: users would simply use pirated copies. "Have you ever seen Lenovo pay a huge amount of money to acquire independently developed personal-computer software? "So Musk would probably have starved to death at the age of 28 and gone to meet Karl Marx. "Suppose he somehow survived until the age of 31 and developed a payment platform like PayPal. The major Chinese internet giants—Baidu, Alibaba, and Tencent—could simply copy it. Why would anyone pay to acquire his company? "Have you ever seen BAT pay an enormous price to acquire an internet application developed by an individual entrepreneur? Investors would know that his product would be copied, so they would refuse to fund him from the very beginning. This time, he would definitely be finished. "Even if BAT did not copy him, could Musk manage the necessary connections? Could he obtain the required licenses? "Those are not things an ordinary person can easily secure, as everyone understands. "Operating such a business without a license would be illegal. In the best-case scenario, the authorities would order him to shut down. In a more serious case, they might accuse him of illegal fundraising, and Musk could end up spending the rest of his life in prison. "Even if he successfully built PayPal and had more than a billion yuan in his hands, could he establish a company like SpaceX? "That is the domain of the state-owned aerospace corporations. "Even if he somehow obtained permission to enter the industry, no one would provide him with the necessary components or support. "If one private individual were allowed to accomplish all that, where would it leave the millions of people working within China’s state aerospace system? "I guess that, had Musk been born in China, the best possible outcome for him would have resembled Zhang Xiaolong’s career path: working for someone who had the connections and qualifications needed to obtain the necessary licenses."

  @Annakania20 But i have a step by step training video that breaks down the process and makes it easier to follow without confusion. And that aside... You'll still need other info's on things to avoid that could get your foreign PayPal acct ban or suspended and other vital things.
