New PayPal Integration to Add Money To a PayPal Account At the Grocery Store Self Checkout

I'm not sure who to sent this to, but I've been thinking about easier and faster ways to add money to my PayPal account when the Idea of adding money to PayPal while at my local grocery store. Here's how I see it:

 

My idea is that PayPal should partner with as many Grocery Store chains as possible to allow people to add money to their paypal accounts via the Self Checkout Cashiers! We could either use our Paypal Debit cards to add money to our paypal accounts the same way that someone does at a bank ATM, except this would be done at any participating grocery store's SELF CHECKOUT Cashier. Or to be able to expand their software to include ability to log into the account from the Self Checkout Cashier and deposit the cash through the automatic money receivers that are already built into the Self Checkout Cashier stations. This would open the horizon of available possibilities of adding money. And would bring more "Universe-ality" to PayPal and broaden overall Paypal usage. 

 

I just want to add money without having to go to the bank which closes around 5pm on weekdays. My Grocery store stays open until 12am. Plus, how easy would it be to just feed your bills and coins into the Self Checkout Register and choose to download that amount into your Paypal account? I'm surprised it hasn't been done already.

You can head on over to a Walmart and add cash via your card or PayPal app:

Use PayPal app to add cash as these retail locations:

Or use your card to add cash at the same retailers as the PayPal app:

https://www.paypal.com/us/webapps/mpp/cash-card

 

I know it's not grocery stores but still there are other places that are open 24 hours (drug stores/7-Eleven) that you could add money at.


Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂

Hey! Thanks so much. I had no idea. I would still love to have the grocery store option as well, as additional locations would make it easier and would love to have a do-it-yourself approach.  (in addition to the options you've shown w/ the card at the ATM)

I'm not sure if more locations or partnerships would mean lesser fees, but that's also something to consider. Thanks for taking the time to share. I'll need to work on getting the app now. 😊
