Two PayPal account on iPhone and iPad

Hi,

I have two paypal personal accounts. I was wondering if I can use them safely on Paypal app. I read on forums that signing in two different same category accounts (bussiness or personal) on PayPal app frequently risk blockage of both.

How about I use one on my iPhone App and other on iPad app. Both iPhone and iPad are logged in with same apple ID though

Thanks

iPad Air, iPadOS 17

Family member unable to purchase app due to unverified PayPal on Apple Account So… I’ve run into this issue NUMEROUS times and am greatly upset and seriously considering to ditch everything Apple related as a result… despite being a loyal customer for over a decade… Firsf off family sharing became a thing, everything is set up and works… We ALWAYS buy gift cards because we don’t want to share our private information like bank details… But eventually we got forced to add a phone number for verification due to the family sharing thing, which eventually stopped working due to the SIM card not being a SPECIFIC TYPE….. Hence being forced to buy an entirely new SIM card which is nearly impossible these days… In the end I decided to hook up my PayPal BECAUSE nobody could download any of their shared games no more due to this issue of the sim no longer working as a payment method… the first thing that happened was Apple instantly billed me money STRAIGHT FROM MY PAYPAL for my first next Cloud Subscription payment, DESPITE there being money in the actual account?… I forcibly blocked this payment, yet it wouldn’t return the money to my bank account to which I NEVER gave approval… So it would be forced to pay the subscription from the actual Apple gift cards we buy in our stores… now… we spend Money and can’t even use it?… Also the fact that Apple claims the “most upper payment method!” (Which would be presumed to be the “Gift card money actually active on the account”, but isn’t.. it completely bypasses to go straight to my PayPal and hence directly from my bank which was NEVER intended or agreed to…) after blocking the PayPal causing it to not take money from PayPal but actually pay from our gift cards it works like intended… Months go by… And one member wishes to purchase a game in the App Store… but it claims my PayPal isn’t verified?… it asks me to verify with my phone number… But the sheer fact it says “Verification needed”, followed by asking for my PayPal phone verification… which I don’t trust because I fear it will directly use my actual bank account via PayPal to pay instead of the money my fam. Has on their actual account via gift cards… Can anyone help as to how to prevent this kind of scam from Apple from happening?… it’s very upsetting and INCREDIBLY annoying and a HUGE waste of my time and energy and I am very angry for this…. and this is the second time I’m here regarding this matter…. It happens on an iPhone XS Max, but I doubt the model would influence it… [Re-Titled by Moderator] Original Title: Family member can’t purchase app because my PayPal isn’t verified - They have money on her Apple account and CAN’T USE IT thanks to this broken feature… - It needs to pay the app from that balance, NOT MY PAYPAL!

Ios26 and PayPal as a payment option ? I’ve recently updated my phone to ios26. I’ve just tried to contribute to a GoFundMe page and PayPal wasn’t offered as a payment option. However, on my iPad (which hasn’t been updated to ios26) PayPal IS a payment option. I’ve had the exact same issue when trying to setup my Esso fuel app. I’ve tried different web browsers and switched off my VPN. Both devices are on the same Wi-Fi network. The only difference is ios26. Thanks for any help.
