Hello @Leander!

This is Lana from Shopify.

I can see on your screenshot that the error message seems to come up when you are already on the PayPal side of the account setup.

It is possible that this issue is related to the cache and cookies on your browser. Could you please try to clear the cookies on your Google Chrome browser following these steps here? After you have done that, go from the beginning to connect the account and watch out for any other error messages or see if the same one comes up. In the case that clearing the cache does not work, you might need to take a look at your account with PayPal, and I have a link to their support centre here.

If after you speak with PayPal it is established that the issue is on our end, please do get back to me here and let me know what they say, - any further context would be very helpful!

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks! -Lana

Paypal gave feedback as below：

I checked your account, your account is normal and verified.
There is no problem with your PayPal account, please contact shopify to check if there is a problem with your Shopify account.

Thank you for checking this with them, - it does sound like we might need to take a closer look at this for you. Would you be able to get in touch with us through our live support here so that we can check this out for you? The reason I am directing you to our live support is because we are currently unable to look into your account details from the Shopify Community, so this would be the way to have a closer look.

I see what you're saying there! You will first need to type a question or topic into the search bar in the middle of the page, in your case you can try 'PayPal', then scroll down to the bottom where you should see the 'Contact Support' option.
