Setting up a PayPal account

To set up a free Paypal account, visit the PayPal website and follow their procedures for creating an account. 

Next, please ensure that the e-mail address associated with your payment settings in the Gigwalk app matches your Paypal account.

In order to be paid for your work you must add a PayPal address to your Gigwalk profile. See below for instructions on adding a PayPal address:

1. Open up the Gigwalk App
2. Click the three horizontal lines in the top left of your screen.
3. Click on "My Profile"
4. Click on "Edit"

Halfway down the page, you will see "PayPal Email." Once you have added a valid PayPal account, your pending payments will go through automatically. Let me know if you run into any issues!

Last thing, please verify your e-mail address and account with PayPal. See below!

To verify your bank information, you must link your bank account to your PayPal account, or be approved for the PayPal Extras MasterCard. Here's how:

1. Log in to your PayPal account.
2. Click Get Verified.
3. Select your verification method.
4. Follow the on-screen instructions to verify your account and email address.

Please refer to the following article from PayPal for additional information regarding this process: https://www.paypal.com/webapps/helpcenter/article/?currentIssueID=12389&m=SRE

Once you have successfully confirmed your PayPal account and email, any pending payments will go through automatically.
