I have linked a card and I am able to send some payments. However, there is no request option and when the other users try to send me money it says that they cannot send money to this user. Meanwhile I am using PayPal from Nepal.
The option to receive Paypal payments is sadly not available in Nepal. You can only send payments for purchases funded by your (confirmed) credit card.
Paypal varies a lot country to country and can only offer the services that the banks / governments of that country allow it to offer. There are quite a few countries unable to receive Paypal payments.
