How do I get a paypal debit card?

You log into your paypal account and apply for the card. They have a debit card and a credit card you can apply for.

I believe the debit card is for U.S. residents, only.

You should see a link to it in your paypal account under the products and services tab.

I love my paypal debit card. I can use my commissions right away at the grocery store when I'm on a beer run.

First off, open a new browser and type paypal.com into the browser or use the banner link above). Click the link at the top of the page that reads "sign up." If you wish to just purchase and not sell with your PayPal account, click the "personal account" for online shoppers. Next, you will be prompted to type in your personal information. This is completely secure. Choose a password that is difficult for others to guess, even family. Keep this written down in a secure, hidden place. Choose a security question you find others may have difficulty guessing as well.

You will then be instructed to add your credit card information or bank account information. They may also ask for the security code on your credit card. The security code is the 3-digit number on the back of the card for Discover, Visa, or Mastercard. For American Express, the code will be 4 digits, above the 16 digit account number on the right side.

I'm afraid you can't, whatever sort of PayPal account you have. They're now available only to US residents.

You can't get them in the UK anymore. I got an e-mail telling me they will be discontinued in March and any money on them will be returned to your PayPal account. Sadly, mine expires this month anyway . Pity, it came in very handy.

I looked into this a while back and it appears you cannot apply for them anymore. They are no longer accepting applicants
