How to send money from my bank card to someone else’s PayPal account?

To send money from your bank card to someone else’s PayPal account, you can follow these steps:

1. Log in to Your PayPal Account

• Go to the PayPal website or app.
• Sign in using your email and password.

2. Link Your Bank Card

If your bank card is not already linked to your PayPal account, follow these steps:

• Go to Wallet: Once logged in, navigate to the Wallet section.
• Link a New Card: Click “Link a card” and enter your card details such as:
  • Card number
  • Expiry date
  • Security code (CVV)
• Confirm Your Card: PayPal might send a small verification charge (around $1.95) to your card to confirm it. You’ll need to check your card statement for the code and enter it on PayPal to complete the verification.

3. Send Money

• Go to ‘Send & Request’: Once the card is linked, click on the Send & Request tab at the top of the PayPal page.
• Enter the Recipient’s Email or Phone Number: Type in the email address or phone number associated with the recipient’s PayPal account.
• Enter the Amount: Input the amount of money you want to send.
• Select Payment Method: When prompted to select the funding source, choose the linked bank card as your payment method.

4. Review and Confirm

• Review Transaction Details: Ensure the recipient’s information, amount, and funding source are correct.
• PayPal Fees: If sending to friends or family, there might be a small fee for using your card (typically around 2.9% + a fixed fee depending on the currency). The fee will be shown before confirming the transaction.
• Currency Exchange: If the transaction involves currency conversion, PayPal will display the exchange rate.
• Confirm the Transfer: Once everything is correct, click Send to complete the transaction.

5. Notification and Delivery

• You and the recipient will receive email notifications once the payment is sent. The recipient will see the funds in their PayPal account almost instantly.

This method allows you to send money directly from your bank card to another person’s PayPal account, even if you don’t have sufficient PayPal balance, using your card as the funding source.
