I used my grandpa's credit card because I don't have one. Try borrowing one from someone who trusts you.

Hello, Maybe you should consider opening up a checking account, I know with most banks there is no certain amount that you have to have in your account. I will try the next buisness day where ever location you are at, and speak to a finacial advisor at your loca bank, explain to them that you are astudent, and you are trying to earn some income online, and in order to do so you need to open an checking or savings account. With Pay Pal all you need is the check card number and your rounting number to your bank. I hope all works in favor for you, good luck. Happy My Lotting!

You can try a debit card with visa logo in it or I suggest that you borrow your parents credit card or debit card for the mean time.

I also tried debit card first, but it didnt work, so i have got it verified by credit card...i am also housewife so i had the problem of papers to get credit card, but some banks in India, give you credit card, if make the fixed deposit of osme amount like Axis bank...i have got it made by making the fixed deposit of some amount, you get credit facility of 80% of what you have deposited...that is the most easy way of getting credit card...if any of your family member can deposit some amount for u, u can ask them...

Hi there, do you have a card that are connected with our bank account, then you might try that. I have a visa card connected to my bank account so it worked fine. And that card is not a kredit card...it is a card I use for pay stuff with but only if I have money in my account. God Luck

The only way to have your paypal verified is to use a credit card or debit card. Considering that you already have a debit card, I do not think you will have a difficulty having your paypal verified.

I think your wrong, paypal accepts debit card so you do not need to worry and try it out. If you still want to have some credit card just borrow to your mom or any relatives or friends. But be responsible and think many times when using credit card so that you do not have any debt to be paid later on. And if you did i hope you can pay them.

No,you must have crdit or debit card.There is no way to verify your paypal account without have a credit card.You can have a credit card if you are not working too by buy it at company or kiosk that issue the credit card.But this credit card can be use by paypal.I have one because i am not work too,i still study.Or you can find or share other credit card like your friend card.Thank you.

When i first registered to paypal, at first i thought you only need to verify your account in your email, but i found out that you also need to verify your account using a credit/debit card in order for you to withdraw the money deposited on your paypal account. But i only have a debit card, so i tried to call the bank about my debit card if it is applicable with paypal and lucky they said its ok. That's why i was able to verify my account in paypal. My suggestion to you is to have a debit card that is applicable in paypal. Ask the bank first if you want to apply for a new debit card that is applicable with paypal. I think many banks today, already considered debit card has an alternative to verify paypal without having credit card.. Hope this will work with you..thanks and more power!.. --PaLs--

actually you don't need to verify your account for you to withdraw your money. you just have to link your back account to your paypal account. but you can only withdraw limited amount, i think $10. what i did, i verify it my sister credit card. We have the same last name so there will be no problem. Or your option is to open an account with union bank. You just need 800 pesos.

No i don't think so. You need a credit or debit card to verify your account at Paypal. Its just a long and tedious thing to do

I am not sure about the credit card needed for paypal. I think you can withdraw money through cheque from the pay pal. I think it different from country to country. I would suggest you to go and get a credit card and now a days it is easy to get credit cards and they do not charge anything for 30 days.

Hey yadav, you don't need any credit card or debit card, You need not verify your pay pal account. It is only that you can withdraw less amount from your paypal account to your bank account if your account is not verified. So don't worry about it. So, you relax and earn following all the terms and conditions. Earlier I also used to worry like you, but when I really got paid, that is when I realized that a credit card is required when we want to draw more amount.

To withdraw money from paypal,you can simply link your bank account.A credit/debit card is needed to lift the sending or receiving limits.So,if you have already linked your bank account you can withdraw money from paypal to it.Cheers!

The way I verified my paypal account was through my bank account. You give them the information, then they send a couple of small deposits to your bank account to make sure that is your account. Then when you see they have been deposited you log into your paypal account and verify the amounts that were deposted. I didn't need a credit card, I have never owned one. Hope that helps

Hi well as far as i concern, you must have a credit card to be verified and you can use the debit card if the bank that you hold the credit card allows you for online trasaction. Maybe you can try to purchase the credit card like mentioned by one of the respondent. I have never had any idea about it maybe you can inq more from her. All the Best Thanusha
