Answer 1

Hello!
If my memory serves me right, then in order to be able to accept paypal payments, you need to have a business account. (regular account will not work).
The next thing to consider is what kind of payment you want to accept. For example, if you are selling a product or service, then you are probably using the Woocommerce plugin. Accordingly, type Woocommerce Paypal Payment Gateway into Google and you will find a bunch of plugins. Install and test. Also, it usually requires the input of a token, etc.
Here is an example -

https://woocommerce.com/products/woocommerce-gatew...
If you do not have an online store, then you should look at plugins that can issue an invoice to the user's name to pay for the service.

Well, if you have some highly specialized task, then it might be worth ordering the development of a plugin (PayPal payment gateway)

There is a Westernbid service that takes care of all this trouble. There are a number of integrations. I made another plugin for Woocommerce. You can study the issue.
