Band new and confused about PayPal

Hi guys.
As said in the thread title I'm brand new to this and while I've read the guide and had a search in the forum - may be doing it wrong - I have a question.
I've followed the advice about setting up a separate email account for entering comps but my PayPal is under a different address. Would this cause a problem do you think?
Thanks,
S

You shouldnt need to be paying for anything and chances of winning something that would be paid by paypal is extremely minimal£2 Savers Club for 2022 #120

It's for something like the free postcode lottery0

You can link email addresses to your paypal. But register for that one with your paypal email. You have to remember to log in every day to check if you have won. I have been on there since 2011 and checked every day and never won though haha£2 Savers Club for 2022 #120

RG01 of you win the winnings get paid to your paypal account. If your registered email on free postcode lottery isnt linked to paypal its harder to claim your winnings£2 Savers Club for 2022 #120

From their FAQsThe reason we send money via PayPal is so that you do not have to enter your bank details onto yet another website. If you do not have a PayPal account connected to the email you register with then you will receive an email from PayPal explaining what you need to do to get your money.
If, at that point, you really don't want to sign up to PayPal please get in touch and ask for a bank transfer (include your full name, sort code and account number) or an Amazon E-Voucher.0 -
