Why should I use the PayPal Debit Card?

The PayPal Debit Card gives you instant access to the money you receive in your PayPal account, eliminating the step of having to transfer money from your PayPal account to your bank account.

What are the fees to use the PayPal Debit Card?

There is no fee to use your PayPal Debit Card to make purchases from merchants that accept MasterCard. There may be fees associated with cash withdrawal and foreign transactions. Please see our User Agreement.

How do I get cash back rewards for using the PayPal Debit Card?

To get rewards with the PayPal Debit Card, sign up for PayPal Preferred Rewards. Once you’re a Preferred Rewards member you’ll get cash back for every debit card purchase that does not require a PIN.

Do I need to have a PayPal balance to use the PayPal Debit Card?

When you pay using your PayPal Debit Card, funds in your PayPal account are used first. You can select a backup funding source for your debit card to cover the purchase if the amount exceeds your available balance

Am I protected if my debit card is lost or stolen?

There is 100% protection against unauthorized purchases made with your PayPal Debit Card.

What other benefits do I get when I use the PayPal Debit Card?

Your PayPal Debit Card purchases may be eligible under MasterCard’s MasterCard Premier Business Card program for a variety of protections, including rental car insurance, travel assistance, and protection against lost or damaged items. Please see the MasterCard Guide to Benefits for more details.

Is there a withdrawal or spending limit using the PayPal Debit Card?

The default spending limits for the PayPal Debit Card are:

Daily spending limit is $3,000.00 USD.

Daily ATM Limit: $400.00 USD.

How long does it take to get the PayPal Debit Card once my application is approved?


It usually takes 2–4 weeks to receive your PayPal Debit Card in the mail.


I would love to have one of these, does anyone know if they are available in the UK?

:)

Should I start with a DEBIT card and see how it goes before applying for a CREDIT card? I've never had a credit or debit card. Most of my acquaintances are saying I should get one. Will a debit card help me ease into using a credit card? Or should I just not bother to get anything and keep paying with cash and checks? What should I watch out for using a credit card?

Most people in the UK with a bank account will automatically get sent a debit card when they reach a certain age anyway?

The paypal credit card is available to non-status UK residents - and it works on a top-up or prepay basis.

Very useful for booking flights and tickets online, as there is generally no booking fee applied, but also reduces the risk of online fraud to the level of cash you have on the card at the time.

there is one main upside to paypal..

EVERYONE KNOWS IT.

downsides are chargebacks, and fees.. but factor them in and you will be fine.

Hi Mark,

Sounds like you really need to keep a certain amount of money back in your Paypal account for refunds, how do you balance that if you are selling on a big scale, beats me how to make sure theres enough in there to handle refunds when you don`t know how many you are going to get hit with.

I mean say you are full time, you would have to be creating loads of sales to combat the refunds and still net a full time income after all other deductions?

Cheers Mark....John.
