If you elected to get sms notification, then yeah you will be charged but you can turn sms off can't you?
When you link new card, PayPal makes a test charge on your card and you log on to PayPal via website or use mobile app to confirm the 4-digit code from your card account. After confirmation, PayPal refunds the test charge which should credit it back to your account within 30 days.
Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂

They don't charge you fee to add new card except the test charge and then they refund that after you confirm.
