Problem with 4-digit “PAYPAL” account confirmation code. I do not receive the code nor do I read the debit.I live in Cameroon
I received this message after trying to make a purchase
''Your recent payment was rejected because you reached your initial PayPal sending limit of €229.00 EUR. This limit is the maximum amount you can send or use for purchases before needing to verify your account.''
You can't add a local bank account / and rarely a debit card in your country. You can only link a visa credit card. You would also need to add a credit visa to verify your paypal account and raise any limits.
Also the option to receive Paypal payments is sadly not available in Cameroon. You can only send payments for purchases funded by your (confirmed) credit card.
Paypal varies a lot country to country and can only offer the services that the banks / governments of that country allow it to offer. There are quite a few countries unable to receive Paypal payments.
Advice is voluntary. Kudos / Solution appreciated.
Thank you for your response I just added a card but my problem is with the card confirmation I just want to make payments online because payments with the credit card directly do not go through so I use paypal but here I am stuck with the limit I do not receive the debit of 1.5eu which will allow me to copy the code to confirm my account I have already made several purchases but the limit has been reached So you now need to confirm the card
