Account verification

[Oluwatobi3]

I wanted to apply for a job recently and one of the major prerequisites for qualification is a verified PayPal account. I couldn't proceed with the application as the organization confirmed that my account is not verified. While opening my account, I provided every necessary detail. It now bothers me why the same account still remains unverified. What must I do to have my account verified please? I would also like to know if my account can receive payment from people I render services to, especially outside Nigeria.

You can't add a local bank account / debit card in your country.
You can only link a visa credit card.

The option to receive Paypal payments is sadly not available in Nigeria.
You can only send payments for purchases funded by your (confirmed) credit card.

Paypal varies a lot country to country and can only offer the services that the banks / governments of that country allow it to offer.
There are quite a few countries unable to receive Paypal payments.
