Hi kimo_magdy,

 

Thanks for posting on the Community Forum about this.

 

I have looked into this for you, and I'm glad to confirm that it is possible to receive money to accounts registered in Egypt, however you would need to make sure that you add and confirm a Visa card in order to do this. Here's some more information about this:

Hope this helps!

Hey,

 

I have the same problem, I'm trying to add a Visa card and it's not working. Does it have to be a Credit card or would a Debit card work? 

 

Thanks!

Hey Kimo_Magdy

 

Were you able to link your card to Paypal? if so what type of card was it and which bank issued it?

 

Thanks Kimo!
