hey ayanda I think I figured what you supposed to do. Your card is supposed to have $1 which they can take and refund back. And also make sure that your card is enabled for online purchases(usually standard bank is disabled if you are in south africa). Hopefully that will solve your problem.

Hello @oyeleke @Ayanda232 and @nombuleloh,

 

Welcome to our community help forum and thanks for posting!

 

Sorry to hear that you're not able to link your card. There are some cards that aren't compatible for use with PayPal. This may include most online or virtual cards. You can find the possible reasons for the card decline and the tips to link your card  here : Why can't I add my card to my PayPal account

 

Best wishes,

Bindu
