Amazon Kindle Sales Payments and PayPal Depositing

I publish e-books on Amazon for Kindle and Kindle Readers.  Amazon only supports EFT and postal delivery for distribution of royalty payments.  In order to set up EFT, I have to enter the ABA Routing number and account number for the bank.  I would rather my royalty payments go into my PayPal account, but I'm not sure if I can do that, or how to set that up if it can be done.  I would appreciate any tips on this.

 

Thank you!

I'm guessing that since Amazon and eBay are competitors, that Amazon has no interest in making it easier for their Kindle authors to get funds deposited directly into PayPal.  I was kind of hoping PayPal had a Banking interface (ABA routing number, account number, etc.) so it could be plugged in as a "bank".  Oh well.  I guess that won't happen anytime soon.

In order to have funds sent to your PayPal Account balance, all that is needed is your PayPal Account email address.  Having said that, if the system you're working with cannot send funds that way, there's not much you can do.  We've worked with companies like Zazzle for example, all we needed to do was provide our email address to them.  They did the rest and all funds earned were sent directly to our PayPal Account.
