Add a card as your funding source.

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

Well i am not in the US or Canada.

However you don't need funds in your paypal balance as a buyer as paypal will take directly from any linked and confirmed funding source.

If you want to use your balance however then it has to be in the correct currency that the persons paypal account can receive.

But for some sites / transactions paypal OR the merchant request a card funded payment for better security for them.
