I am trying to pay a transaction, already have a preferred card and just made another payment earlier.

paypal keeps on asking me to add a funding source, even if i add another card it just keeps on asking to add another card.

I have been having the same problem with my visa gift card. I linked the gift card to paypal and and I go to checkout a red pop-up says and I quote: "There is no funding source added to your PayPal account. Please add a card to continue." I have been trying to troubleshoot this problem for 3 days now and nothing seemed to work. Sorry for not having any answers to help you out.

Hi @aca99srbb,

 

I'm sorry to hear that the transaction you're trying to make is prompting you for a different payment method. It sounds like the cards that are being added are getting declined. This can happen for several reasons. Please take a look at this article for some things to check.

 

I hope this helps!

Hi @aca99srbb,

 

Thanks for following up. Generally speaking, there isn't a different when you send money via PayPal balance versus a credit card, however, from what you've described it sounds like you're running into our security system. It sounds like we'd want to take a closer look into this, so to avoid sharing personal information over a public forum I would recommend reaching out to us through either Facebook or Twitter, or you can always go to the bottom of any PayPal page and click "Help" or "Contact."

 

Thanks,
Gwen

Same for me. I have confirmed a credit card using 4-digit the transaction code.

 

Still if I try to send money to a business PayPal account I get "Add a funding source..."
