Hi everyone,
I would not recommend that anyone add a prepaid card as a bank.
Financial credentials on file must be linked to your identity. Prepaid cards are not meant to be used with PayPal because they aren't associated with your verifiable information. A prepaid card is also not a bank, and representing it as a bank may result in limitations or potentially permanent account closure. I don't want to see anyone try this and find that they can no longer use PayPal as a result.
If you're interested in adding cash to a PayPal account, look into Green Dot MoneyPak. It's designed to work with PayPal securely.
I hope this helps!
Olivia
