I am getting an error message when trying to link paypal express payments that states " please confirm your email address to activate your account. To do this follow the instructions we sent to XXX"
I have contacted paypal and 6 people so far have been unable to help me. Has anyone had this issue and can tell me what i am doing wrong or a way to fix the issue? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thankyou

Hi @Bree88,
Hyde here from Shopify.
When you set up your Shopify store, Shopify creates a PayPal Express Checkout account for the email address you used to set up your store (there's more here). You can check what that email address is if you're unsure by going to Settings > General.
So you will need to verify the email you receive to activate your account - have you not received that email? I'm uncertain as to what the difficulty is that you're having?
Looking forward to hearing from you.
All the best, Hyde.

This error might mean that the connection between Paypal and Shopify isn't working. You need to sign in to your PayPal account to give Shopify access. You need to deactivate and then reactivate PayPal in your Payment providers settings.
