I want to add Pay Pal but it is in my maiden/married name which is different than what is registered on my Paddy Power account?

If this is the case you may have to contact customer service after the Pay Pal is added onto your account as it may become temporarily suspended as a name mismatch on the payment type to activate your account. Note: From time to time our security team my request a copy of Photo ID to verify details on your account.

To deposit with PayPal you must use the email address that is visible on the PayPal icon on the Alternative Methods page. If you have updated your PayPal email address since registering with Paddy Power, you will need to use the original email address registered.
