How do I add my debit card?

[aldin18]

Hi!

I want to add my visa debit card to my account, but it doesn't have an option for a debit card.

For example, when filling out the information, I have selected Visa and entered my numbers.

But the problem is, it asks for a CVV and an expiration date. The thing is, my card does not have an expiration date nor does it have a CVV on the back.

I've linked my card before, (by confirming my bank), but to fully verify my PayPal it wants me to "link a card". 

Can anyone help? 

For my PayPal summary, it says (from left to right)

Account created, Bank confirmed, Email confirmed, Link a card 'Keep earning card rewards.', Mobile confirmed.

Thanks!

Hi aldin18,

Welcome to the community forum and thanks for posting.

For us a bank account and a card are totally separate even though they may be linked. As such we wouldn't consider confirming a bank adding a card. If your card does not have an expiry date or CVV I am afraid that it cannot be used on PayPal.

We do recommend adding a card as a back up to using your bank account but it is not necessary. If you have confirmed your bank account in the UK your PayPal account is verified and adding a card is just a suggestion.

I hope this helps.
