Can I cancel a withdrawal from my PayPal account?

Please note: Product and feature availability may differ by market. In some countries, certain PayPal services may be available only for cross-border transactions, and receiving money with PayPal requires linking your account to a licensed local partner. Refer to What is the third-party partner service? for more information.

If you are a new customer in Nigeria please be sure to link to your partner bank to start receiving money.

Once you’ve requested a withdrawal from your PayPal account, you cannot cancel it.

If the transfer is complete and you need the money in your PayPal account, you can add it back.
