Will Paypal accepts multiple Yubikeys for 2FA?

Hello,
I did notice Paypal allows to use WebAuthn as a 2FA recently.
I did add my primary Yubikey successfully.
I also own a backup Yubikey if something bad happens to my primary key.
Actually, once my primary Yubikey has been configured on my Paypal account, I am not able to add my backup Yubikey.
Will Paypal add the ability to configure multiple Yubikeys on an account to be able to use backup keys?

I also noticed this too when I reset 2FA that they added support for security keys
I would like to know this too. I would like my Yubikeys to be my only 2FA
For the backup method I am using the Authenticator option of course with the Yubico Authenticator
Also the paypal mobile app does not yet have support for Security Keys

Created a community account just to "me too"
Thank you PayPal enabling hardware keys. However, please allow 2 (or more) hardware keys in the profile. Similar to the OP, a backup key is needed, in case something happens with the primary key.

Yes please add support for multiple 2FA keys (like yubikeys) because we all need backup keys.

Same problem here...I thought cool! Paypal supports YubiKey.....oh wait...only 1....first service of any kind that I've come across that doesn't let you setup a backup hardware key -_-

I was about to ask this same question but I guess I'll just ad a "Me, too".
Is there any way to officially ask PayPal for this support rather than just adding a comment to the user community echo chamber? JHas PayPal develoment given any indication they have heard this request?

Would also like this as well. Every other service can do it, and should do it. I have a USB-A and a USB-C Yubikey. Sometimes I have one or the other plugged in. I see we have backup methods, email, sms etc, but this defeats the whole purpose to use the Yubikeys... lol

Same problem here.
How on earth is a financial and payments service so limited in terms of using the most secure login method there is?
I have 2 Yubikeys - of course I do: a main key and a backup key.
But Paypal does NOT let me set up both keys. Why not???????
PLUS: The Paypal Android app does not support Yubikeys... Again.... why NOT? This doesn't make sense.
