Your card was declined by the issuing bank

[RobertBA63]

So I got a new visa card with around 15-20 dollars on it and when I try to confirm my card it says "Your card was declined by the issuing bank. Please try a different card or contact your card issuer with questions." please help!

Is it a prepaid card? You need to register the card with your name and mailing address that matches your PayPal account.

Hello @Hosam_Elsaied and everyone! 

Welcome to the PayPal Community! I'm sorry to hear you've run into some issues adding a card to your PayPal account. If the card has been declined by your bank, normally we recommend reaching out to your bank to see what the issue may be. However, here's a Help Center article you may find useful: Why can't I add my credit or debit card to my PayPal account?

Good luck!
