Hello PayPal community
I'm an artist who does pet portraits on commission but I also make handmade gifts, sell printed clothes and accessories, and pet snacks and toys. I wanted to set up a business account but during set-up it's asking me for an MCC code. I have no idea which MCC code to select as I have a website with a variety of items and services that I sell. Could anyone give advice on which MCC code I should use?
Kind regards,
Soren
