Can I Deposit Directly Into My PayPal Account?

Starting With PayPal
When users sign up for a PayPal account they link their bank account, credit card or debit card to their PayPal account. Users can then use their PayPal account to pay for items instead of using their actual credit card information. This adds an extra level of security for the customer.
Adding Money
There are many ways to add money to a PayPal account. Users who sell items can choose to be paid via PayPal, which increases the balance of their account. Users can also use a MoneyPak to add funds directly to their PayPal accounts. As of 2010, depositing checks directly to a PayPal account is not an option.
PayPal Security
Many people worry about the security of depositing money to their PayPal account. Fortunately, PayPal has an extensive security system that includes heavy encryption. It is generally not possible to discover bank account or credit card information through PayPal. Users can increase the security of their PayPal deposits by choosing complex passwords for their accounts.
