Can I use my personal bank account?

Yes! Both Stripe and PayPal allow you to link personal checking or savings accounts. You don't need a separate business bank account unless you prefer to keep finances separated for accounting purposes.


Requirements:

Must be a US bank account (for US-based merchants)

Must be checking or savings (not credit cards or prepaid cards)

Must be in your name or your business's name

Must accept ACH transfers
