So im trying to add my daughters debit card to my PayPal wallet, and im not sure if im allowed to. It has the same billing address as my current PayPal account billing address but the debit card has a different name would that effect any type of suspension to my account or is it fine to add it and be able to use the debit card when purchasing anything through PayPal ?

Hi @HVNJIABMW,

 

Thank you for your post!
 

I do understand your query. When adding a bank/card to your PayPal account, the name on your PayPal account should match the name on your bank account/card.

 

I would suggest you do not add someone else's card to your PayPal account. This can not only affect any transactions you make with PayPal, but also any withdrawals to make to the bank/card. Please only add your own bank/card to your PayPal account. 

 

If your daughter is over 18, she can create her own PayPal account to use her card.

 

I hope this helps!
