Adding funds through prepaid credit cards?

[DomVee]

Well, I don't want have the prepaid cc's linked to my account, but I'd rather have the funds from the cc's transferred to my Paypal account. Is this allowed? I assume so, but how would I go about doing this?

Welcome to the boards!

At this time, we don't recommend adding pre-paid debit or credit cards, as they seldom pass our stringent security measures. Even if they do, and the payment is later refunded, we're required to send it back to the card - which can be a problem for you if you have since discarded the card.

In terms of adding funds, at this time, you cannot use a card to add funds to the balance. However, if you can successfully register the card, you don't need to add funds first.

Just make a payment, and we'll debit the card directly.

Thanks!

make this happen, if the card passes the so-called strict rules for usage, then let us upload the dollar value to our paypal account! the bank takes incredibly long 8-10 days. not everyone on ebay has 8-10 days to put a dollar amount out of our daily lives in transit to our paypal account! if i want to spend my money i want to do it today, not in 10 days! Make it happen and it will drastically increase paypal usage, not everyone likes the bank holding onto our money or a credit card company for that matter!
