Looked around all over my account, cannot find for the life of me a creation date, statements are only available for last 3 months, so can't go by that.

Any ideas?

I don't believe there's anyway to do that... might want to just contact Paypal support, I'm sure they'll tell you.

Just tell them you want to add it below your "verified" badge as a way to boost credibility among your prospective customers.

It's easy enough - Just go to your email, and search for "Activate your Paypal Account".

if you're looking for approximate time I think paypal does a good job of keeping account history, download full account history and see when first transaction was.

I could not find creation date but I did find my very first transaction.

Under history, basic search... I knew I opened my account in 2008 so I searched 1-1-2008 to 12-31-2008. Change the date boxes manually (the calender option did not work)

Top right of the transaction box is the "next" button. Click that till you find your first transaction.
