How do I add money to PayPal for my Business Debit Mastercard® purchases?
When you make a purchase with your Business Debit Mastercard, we'll use any available money you have in PayPal. Here's what to do if you need to add money:
Receive money
When someone sends you money in PayPal, it can be used for your Business Debit Mastercard purchases.
Transfer money from your bank account
Go to your Money page and select Transfer Money. It usually takes 3-5 business days for a transfer to complete. You can do it at any time and at no cost. We’ll email you when the transfer completes.
Add Cash in a store
You can add cash in any Green Dot retailer (including Walmart, CVS, 7-Eleven, Walgreens, Rite Aid, Dollar General, Dollar Tree, Family Dollar and many others). There are 2 ways to add cash in a store:
- Swipe your card: Take your cash to the register and let the clerk know you want to add cash to PayPal. A fee of up to $4.95 applies. They will ask you to swipe your PayPal Business Debit Mastercard. Then hand the cash (between $20 and $500) to the clerk. Your money will be added within minutes and you’ll receive an email confirmation.
- Log in to the PayPal app (not the PayPal Business app), tap Wallet, then tap Add cash at stores. Once you pick a retailer, we’ll create a barcode on your smartphone. Take your cash to the register at the store and let the clerk know you want to add cash to PayPal. A fee of up to $4.95 applies. Allow the clerk to scan the barcode on your smartphone and hand them the cash. Your money will be added within minutes and you’ll receive an email confirmation.
If you’re unable to add money:
- Your PayPal account may be limited. Find out possible reasons why.
- You may need to verify your identity. Check out the benefits of our Customer Identification Program (CIP).You could send your money directly to the recipient using a bank account or a debit/credit card.
