Hello, @hadebesamantha5. Thanks for taking the time to add your concern here on the PayPal Community Forum. I'm sorry if there's been any confusion about the reward you received.

 

If PayPal sent you $5 USD (or any amount of money) as a reward, it would be yours to keep. If there is money in the balance of your PayPal account, you may use it to pay for a purchase or you may withdraw it to a bank account or card depending on your country.

 

PayPal appreciates input from other customers like @hitzgroup, but we would not take back money that was given as a reward or gift. Please log on to your account and review your Activity as well as checking your Wallet to see what options you may have to add a bank account or card if you want to withdraw the money.

I hope this is helpful. Thanks for being a part of the PayPal Community!

Sincerely,

Michael

Hello,

 

If they have provided you the $5 USD as a reward normally within 7 days they will take the money back from you,
