You have the choice of deactivating your PayPal Checkout account or deleting it from your store. Deleting the account from your store does not affect your account with PayPal; it merely erases the account from the Payment Center section of your store. However, before you make your account inactive or delete it from the Payment Center, you should complete any pending transactions as deleting your account from the Payment Center will remove your ability to process transactions through this method.
