What Are Ways To Send Money to My PayPal Account?

Bank Account
If you have funds in your checking or savings account that you'd like to transfer to PayPal, you can link your bank account to your PayPal account. For security purposes, PayPal confirms your bank account by depositing two small amounts of money into your account. After confirming that you received these amounts, you can begin transferring money to your PayPal account from your bank account. You may link up to eight bank accounts to your PayPal account. You can also transfer your PayPal funds to your bank account at anytime. Transfers from or to your bank account typically take three to four days.
Credit Card
As with a bank account, you can link your credit or debit card to your PayPal account. You cannot directly fund your PayPal account with your credit or debit card, but you can use your card to pay for purchases through PayPal. Once you link your card to PayPal, the company confirms the card as yours by charging a $1.95 fee that is later reimbursed. You can pay with your card whenever you use your PayPal account.
MoneyPak
A MoneyPak is a funding method for Green Dot prepaid debit cards and for your PayPal account. You can purchase a MoneyPak at various retail stores. There is no predetermined amount on the MoneyPak; you can add $20 to $1,100 dollars onto the MoneyPak when you purchase it. Most locations allow you to add only $500, although Wal-Mart allows funding of up to $1,100. Once you purchase the MoneyPak, you can transfer the funds directly into your PayPal account. The funds appear instantly.
Selling Items
If you sell items over the Internet, you can ask the buyer to pay you via PayPal. The buyer must have a PayPal account to complete any PayPal-related transactions. Once the buyer sends you the money, the funds are immediately available in your PayPal account. Certain auction sites, such as eBay, use PayPal as the preferred payment method. PayPal is associated with eBay.
Sending Money
If you don't have a bank account or credit card, or if you prefer not to link them to your PayPal account, you can ask a friend or family member to send you money via PayPal. As long as the person you're asking has a PayPal account, he can send money from his PayPal account to your PayPal account.

How Does a PayPal Credit Card Work?

PayPal Basics
PayPal is a popular online financial service, offering its customers an easy way to make transactions and payments online. When new customers set up a PayPal account, they link either an active checking account or credit card to their new account. Then when they want to purchase something online or bid on an eBay auction, they can pay with their PayPal account information, which will then withdraw the necessary funds from the linked account. For those who sell items on eBay or other websites, PayPal also allows them to receive payments from other users and then transfer their PayPal money to any checking account.
Application
Any individual with an active PayPal account can apply for an official PayPal MasterCard credit card. The application process is completed directly on the PayPal website (see Resources below), and the company will make a credit decision on your application almost instantaneously. If your application is approved, the new card will be synced with your PayPal account and you can begin using the card as a separate online funding source. You will receive the physical credit card 1 to 2 weeks after account approval.
Card Use
The PayPal credit card functions as a regular credit card and can be used anywhere that MasterCard is accepted, including online shops. In addition, the credit card becomes a separate source of funding in your PayPal account, which means you can start making online payments with it right away. PayPal offers its credit card with no annual fee and no liability for unauthorized purchases. PayPal credit card customers will receive monthly statements in the mail detailing every transaction, and then payments can be sent both by mail and online.
Rewards and Benefits
When your application for a new PayPal credit card is approved, you are automatically enrolled in the PayPal Plus Credit Card Rewards Program. As a member of the program, you earn reward points from every transaction you make using your PayPal credit card. Your rewards account is credited 1 point for every dollar that you spend. Once you have accrued a certain number of reward points, you can log on to the PayPal credit card website and redeem your points for a number of different reward vouchers. These vouchers can be used to save money on future PayPal purchases.

Paymate accepts credit cards for online payments. PayPal has a wider range of options for buyers who wish to purchase your product or service. Options include credit and debit cards, the PayPal Extras MasterCard, the eBay MasterCard, PayPal Smart Connect, the buyer's PayPal balance and bank transfer.
Account Usage Fees
PayPal does not charge to merely open an account. There are optional payments by website or phone for $30 per month.
The difference with Paymate is that it charges most sellers on a monthly basis separately from transaction fees. Sellers must pay this amount regardless of how many items they sell in a month.

Wait Times
PayPal generally sends the funds to a merchant immediately when a buyer makes a purchase with a credit card. When Paymate accepts a credit card, it takes time to send the money to the seller's bank. The wait time for U.S. sellers is 10 to 15 days after payment approval from the bank. It is one to three business days for Australia sellers. New Zealand merchants wait only one day after bank payment approval.
