Becoming verified on PayPal
What does PayPal verification mean?
A user who is Pay Pal verified has confirmed their identity with eBay and PayPal. Once a seller is verified, it:
Increases their credibility with other buyers and sellers on eBay
Allows them to list on international eBay sites
Raises their sending and withdrawal limits on PayPal
Provides some sellers with higher seller limits (eg. new sellers or those selling in high risk categories)
This higher level of verification is designed to reduce fraudulent or counterfeit items on the site, with the result that all eBay members will be able to buy and sell on eBay with confidence.
