I successfully added my solokey v2 usb security key with all my other important accounts and websites, I tried adding it to paypal but I'm getting a generic error "Oops, something went wrong, try again" over and over.
I have tried other web browsers
I have tested my key again on a different website successfully
They key supports all popular 2fa auf standards.
I can't seem to find I way to add it over nfc in the app.

Hello @jaydenhawkes123,
Welcome to the PayPal Community Forum. I can certainly understand why you'd wish to add a secondary verification on to your PayPal account. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to confirm that type of security key is supported on our services. However, here's an article on Setting up 2-step verification through your PayPal account.
I hope that helps!
