I had my mother open up this paypal account and it's a little confusing as to what she needs to do in order to have a paypal debit card sent to her. I signed up for paypal years ago and have a paypal debit card but I don't remember what is required. I am under the impression that you can use either a credit card OR a bank account to provide what is needed. The account is over 60 days old I believe. And I believe the account is 'premium'.
What I'm trying to do is get a card sent to my mother so she can use this any time funds are put into her account. And my plan is to buy moneypaks to provide funds to her account. I live pretty far from her and this seems like a convenient way to send money to her. She does not have a credit card, but I know she has a savings account at her bank. My impression is that she can't use this money I put into her account unless she has the paypal debit card (she doesn't get online to buy things).
I would also like to know if there are easier ways of sending money, or other ways, besides adding moneypaks to her account.
So I need to:
Get a paypal debit card sent to her (what is required for that)
Find easy and multiple ways to send her money (moneypaks, email?) If email is an option, how does it work?
