Some of my clients pay me with Paypal. The money goes into my business paypal account. I need to get it to my primary business checking account, which is Quickbooks Cash + Envelopes. That's the problem.
When I try to add the routing and account numbers for the bank behind Quickbooks Cash + Envelopes (Gobank, a division of Green Dot Bank), Paypal says it can't link to that bank.
Support told me to do it through Quickbooks Online by adding the paypal account as a linked account. I did that, and it shows up under QBO Cash Flow page as a Linked Account. Sounds promising.
But I see no option to transfer from paypal to my quickbooks cash + envelopes account. If I use the hamburger (three dot) down menu next to quickbooks cash, and choose Transfer Money, the Paypal account doesn't show up, just my other linked accounts. I was told by support to set things up this way so it would work, and this is my first chance to try it as a client has paid with paypal.
Why doesn't paypal understand the GoBank as a bank, and why doesn't this work, and how can I get the money from paypal to my quickbooks cash bank account? Please don't recommend paper check, or instant transfer to my debit card, as that incurs yet more fees I don't want to pay.
