Hi @upmaman,

Welcome to the PayPal Community!
You may not be able to add your bank account for the following reasons:

- The bank account is already active in 2 PayPal accounts. A bank account cannot be active in 3 PayPal accounts at the same time. Start the process of removing the bank account from the PayPal account it is currently connected to. There is online help if you have forgotten your login details.
- The bank account has been added to a total of 3 PayPal accounts. A bank account cannot have more than 3 PayPal accounts added during its term.
- The holder of the bank account does not match the name in the PayPal account.
- The bank account is already active in a PayPal account that has a restriction or is in the red.

Unfortunately, there are some bank accounts that are not compatible with PayPal. This includes most pure online or prepaid bank accounts.
