Paypal lies and tells you you can take money out of a US account without linking, instead taking funds out via mailed check. But in fact it does not allow for this. The UX has a dark pattern that will lead you to think this option exists, but it will fail. Any mailed check attempt will end as an error. Customer service escalation confirms its not possible to take funds out without bank link. Instead of refunding 5k to customers and asking them to inconvenience themselves by paying again via ACH, we had to open a new bank account. I repeat. I went as far as opening a new bank account with a new banking institution that would be solely used to link to PayPal. Do not link paypal to any core business accounts. You really should segregate your core business accounts from any linking, stripe etc or yodlee-type service, if you can help it. Let the payment relationship be between your bank and your customer bank only. No middle man. No surprises
