How can I add Fund to my Wallet/ PayPal balance?

[lenzder]

Hello everyone,

I've been tryin to search a way to add fund to my PayPal balance from my linked debit card because I can't find the Add money or any Add fund function. The only button under Wallet is Transfer Fund but the problem is I can't add fund to my Wallet/ PayPal balance so how can I purchase or send money without using my debit card directly? It seems that the only option is to Send money and get the fund directly from the linked card.

Also, I have a verified information/ requirements.

Thanks helping in advance. Please see below illustration:

The option to add funds to a paypal account from a linked funding source is ONLY via a bank account and not a debit or credit card.

Also even if you had a linked bank account (not all countries can link one) then also not all countries have the 'add funds' option.

You never need funds in your Paypal account balance as a buyer. When you purchase an item then Paypal credit the seller for you, this is so there is no delay in the despatch of your item. Paypal will then take the wait for the funds to transfer to reimburse them. The funds would be automatically taken from your linked card.

Hello @kernowlass ,

Thank you for your reply. I have one more question, is the same method will be applied if I am "sending money" to someone via email?

Many thanks.
