You need to provide the buyer with your PayPal account email address or you need to send the buyer a PayPal invoice from your PayPal account using the "Request Money" tab. When the buyer sends payment, the funds will be credited to your PayPal account balance.

You can then use those funds to send payment to a seller or you can withdraw the funds to your bank account.

You must have a credit card, a debit card or a bank account linked to your PayPal account before you can send any payments.

Be sure to read the PayPal Seller Protection Policy and the PayPal Security Center information... here's the links...
