Hi sarah1425,
Welcome to the community forum and thanks for posting.
Currently, PayPal accounts in Sri Lanka are unable to use our services to receive payments. When we offer our service to a country, we need to ensure that we are compliant with both local and international laws before we can offer our full service. it wouldn't be possible to add a bank account to a PayPal account registered in Sri Lanka but you can link your Visa, MasterCard, Discover, or American Express card to send money to family and friends, or to pay for things. To link your card to your PayPal account, the billing address on your card statement must match the address on your PayPal account. You can add more than one card to your PayPal account but, for your security, a card can only link to one PayPal account at a time.
To add a card:
- Go to Wallet.
- Click Link a card in the Credit and debit cards section.
- Enter the required information.
- Click Save.
You can add up to 8 credit or debit cards to your PayPal account.
When you add your debit or credit card to your account, you may be required to confirm it.
Note:
- We will temporarily place an authorisation hold on this card of $1.00 USD, or local equivalent, to verify that your card is valid. You will not incur any charges as this temporary authorisation hold will be released within a few days, depending on your credit card issuer.
- If your card is eligible for automatic update with PayPal, we may update the card for you when new information is available, including a new expiration date or a new card number. Any billing agreement and payment preference associated with the old card will be migrated to the new card. We may also remove a card on your behalf if the card becomes unusable or has been closed.
