PayPal Protection for Buyers and Sellers
When using PayPal through Artwork Archive, most users are eligible for PayPal's buyer and seller protection in case something goes wrong. Review PayPal's security and protection FAQ for more information. Terms and conditions vary by country, so be sure to check your country's specific terms.
Updating Sales Records in Artwork Archive
After issuing a refund, update the corresponding sales record in Artwork Archive to ensure that the artwork no longer shows as "sold."
Note:
PayPal Processing is a Premium Feature and is not available on Artist Apprentice or Collector Starter accounts. You can upgrade your account at any time by going to Account in the left-hand menu.
If you have any further questions, click on the chat icon at the bottom right-hand corner of any Artwork Archive page to send us a message. Our team is always happy to assist you!
