Adding debit card to paypal

I would like to register my bank account (debit card) from Trinidad and Tobago on my paypal account. Since this is not a US bank account can I have some assistance? I did some research and found that PayPal does not recognise my country's banks. Why is this? This is really unfair to us here and paypal is my only means of making the payments I need to as I don't have a credit card. Can someone please please assist me.

You can't withdraw to a local bank account in your country.
You can only withdraw to a linked card.....that has to be a VISA.

The only exception is U.S expats can add their bank accounts to other countries paypal accounts (paypal is a U.S company so they allow their citizens to do this).

 

However you 'may' be able to link a debit card to fund your purchases.............


Click on the link below and select the country you want from the drop down list for options available in that country.
