Gift card from overseas not being accepted

[Markou72]

Good morning,

I reside in Europe and my sister who resides in Canada sent me a Visa gift card ....i have tried adding it to my account but it isn't accepting it.

Do Visa gift cards not work because I do not reside in the same country??

Thanks in advance

Paypal is country specific so you need to add bank accounts and cards from the same country OR that has the same billing address.
