Hatch My House users can either sign up for a free PayPal Standard Business account or link an existing PayPal Personal account created before November 1st 2012 and upgrade it for free to a PayPal Premier account. Both account types enable your registry to accept credit and debit card payments from friends and family regardless of whether or not they have a PayPal account themselves. When you open a Business account - but you are a person - simply list your First and Last Name as the name of the business. If you are a business such as a Non-Profit using the site for Fundraising purposes, list the name of your business. Any money received in your PayPal Business or Premier account is FDIC insured up to $100,000 USD.
