nickheitman Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 i just got a debit card and i tried hooking it up to paypal but it won't let me. i got it a few days ago and just got the pin and it worked at the ATM. however, it won't work for paypal or in the VC store (not sure about other webstores). any idea?

chaps Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 does it have a visa , mastercard logo etc on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danthemjfan23 Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 i had the same problem with my debit card, cause the answer to chap's question for me was "no". you might have to link your paypal account directly to your bank account itself, not the debit card, and it will work.

kouka Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 ^^^ yeah, use your bank account - that way you save others you are paying on some transaction fees (i believe). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickheitman Posted December 9, 2008 Author Share Posted December 9, 2008 it has a logo on it. ^^^ yeah, use your bank account - that way you save others you are paying on some transaction fees (i believe). word, i will do that. but what if i want to use my debit directly (like in the VC store)?

danthemjfan23 Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 nick, i think it won't be a problem. when you checkout of the VC store, you go through paypal right? so as long as your bank account is your funding source, all should be a go. unless there's something i'm missing? but that's how i do it...

valentine Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 you sure it isnt an ATM card and not a debit card? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickheitman Posted December 9, 2008 Author Share Posted December 9, 2008 It says debit card on it. I'm not sure about everything but the bank said it should work online. And I'm going to hook it up to my bank account but if somewhere doesn't accept paypal am I fucked? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rtw88 Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Don't you use your checking number that's on your checks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgoodcore Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Don't you use your checking number that's on your checks? To setup the bank account, but just to use the card like a credit card you use the 16 digit number on the front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
