There are some exceptions to this, but banks are also changing the way these transactions are processed, which might subject you to additional fees. Generally, the fees PayPal charges to send money to another person using a credit card are greater than the rewards you will earn, making it unattractive to use a credit card to send person-to-person money transfers through PayPal.

After all, your credit card earns rewards-Why not earn additional cash back or transferable points when sending money? Naturally, you might wonder if you should use a credit card to send money to another person using PayPal. As of 2022, 209.3 million people worldwide use PayPal to send money to friends or acquaintances. Not a big deal, it drops again at the start of the new week.PayPal is a convenient way to send money to a friend or family member and was probably the largest force in changing the way we send money to other people. I don't know the exact amount, but i hit it this week, after about $4,500-5,000 in transfers. You can transfer money from a connected bank in PayPal to your PayPal wallet, and then transfer it, but i believe there is a 3-5 day wait before the bank to PayPal transfer completes and the money hits your PayPal balance/wallet, and- then you can do the transfer.Įdit: there is a limit to how much you can transfer each week. Now- you can't transfer money from a debit or bank account directly to CashApp, using PayPal- the money has to be in your PayPal wallet.

I never do the free 1-3 days transfer, but it would work exactly the same, albeit you'll be waiting for those 1-3 days to see it in your Cashapp account. Listen for the notification/change sound from CashApp confirming money is there. Wait for PayPal to confirm that your transaction is complete. Hit the blue"Transfer X amount now" button. Enter how much you want to transfer from your PayPal wallet balance. Or, if you want to do it for free, choose the 1-3 day option instead. Once you choose the CashApp debit card, it will ask if you want to do an instant transfer for a fee (1.5% of the transaction, with a minimum of $0.25 and a maximum of $15.00). Choose your Cashapp debit card (mine comes up as a generic "Visa- prepaid"- but shows the last 4 digits of your card, so you can be sure you're using the correct debit card). New page will open, with a list of your connected bank accounts and credit/debit cards. The top option will say "Money out", and show you 3 ways to choose from: There are two options: Money out and Money in. Click it.Ī new page will open that says "transfer money". Beneath your PayPal wallet balance is an option that says "transfer money". Once you have the card linked, you can transfer your PayPal balance (all or some) to your cashapp debit card.

Proceed to link your cashapp debit card to PayPal- choose "link manually", bc it won't recognise Cashapp as an actual bank card. At the top, you have the option to link a bank, or link a card. This will open to the page listing your existing connected bank account and debit cards. On your homepage for PayPal, hit the menu (the 3 lines in the upper left corner), then select "wallet" from the drop-down list. You need to have an existing PayPal account, with another bank already on it. If you have a cashapp debit card, you can link it to PayPal and transfer money from your PayPal balance to your cashapp card. You can't send money from CashApp to PayPal (PayPal does not recognise Cashapp as a bank, even though you have a routing and account number for your Cashapp account however, if you have both a PayPal and a CashApp debit card, it is possible)- but you can send money from Paypal to CashApp if you have a Cashapp debit card (even if you don't have a PayPal debit card).
