I have been trying to link my bank card to my PayPal to a point I even created another bank account but it is still refusing to grant me access. Please help. I’m from Namibia and I tried accessing it through my iPhone.

You can't add a local bank account / debit card in your country.
You can only link a visa credit card.

Also the option to receive Paypal payments is sadly not available in Namibia.
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.

Kudos / Solution appreciated.
