August 5, 200817 yr Hello I purchased a Visa Debit gift card today from my local bank. I want to put the credit from the gift card onto my paypal account but I do not know how. If anyone could help me out with this, please do.
August 5, 200817 yr I don't even know if you can, but if it's possible you would probably do it the same as a typical credit card. Sorry I can't help more. catch it now so you can like it before it went so mainstream

August 6, 200817 yr No offense Agunimon, but that's really irritating. Those posts don't serve any purpose. Might just as well go down that road & ruin the forum by answering every question with "just google it". Think if you were asking a question, what kind of answer would you want? Probably one that helps you. __ Anyways, first you have to check if it's valid for online purchases. If it doesn't instantly work, go to step 2: Go to the website of the card issuer, and input the number there & validate it for "Verified by Visa" program. After you log into PayPal, select "Add a new credit card". Since it has a set amount of credit (which basically just makes it debit), input the full amount of the gift card and add it to your balance. Depositing from some countries, it might not be possible to fill "balance". Funds will be automatically drafted from the card when you make any purchases, so a balance isn't necessary.

Okay, thank you. One last question, do I have to have a Bank account registered to my pay pal in order to add a card?
August 6, 200817 yr I don't believe you do, as my friend did and I'm fairly certain he kept his money inside his cat. But I'm afraid I'm not 100% sure. catch it now so you can like it before it went so mainstream
