How to add funds to a Paypal account?
June 2, 2009
You’ve opened a Paypal account. There’s something on the internet that you want to buy but your Paypal balance is zero. You wonder how you can add funds to your account so you can start buying online.
How exactly do you fund a Paypal account?
There are only two ways.
Paypal and BPI E-Credit Card
May 25, 2009
Very few local debit and credit cards can be used with Paypal. For those without credit cards, the UnionBank EON debit card is a usual option. For those with a BPI Mastercard, however, there now is an alternative “credit card” that can be used with Paypal: the BPI e-Credit card.
I visited BPI earlier and a staff introduced me to it. The e-Credit card is similar to a supplementary card, which means it is attached to the regular BPI Mastercard.
BPI markets the e-Credit card as the “card for online transactions.” Its account number is different from the regular credit card number which means online, your regular credit card number won’t appear.

If you’ve been following our posts about Paypal, you’ll see that there really is a way to make money using Paypal. In May 2008, we wrote about the $30 and $85 bonus we got from Paypal. These are payments for PayPal’s Merchant Referral Bonus Program, wherein you can be entitled to receive a portion of Paypal transaction amounts of the people you referred to PayPal. Last week, we received another batch of Paypal referral bonuses. This time, the bonus totaled a whopping $182.00 as seen in the screenshot below. Read more
Withdraw money from limited Paypal account?
May 20, 2008
A limited PayPal account is an account with restricted access to Paypal funds. Normally, a limited account:
- cannot send or withdraw funds
- cannot close and terminate account
- has limited view of transaction reports
- sometimes unable to receive incoming payments
Paypal provides instructions on how to lift the limit placed on the account and this usually includes sending verification documents to confirm the identity of the account holder.
Received $85+ bonus from Paypal
May 16, 2008
We have been writing articles, tips, and tutorials about Paypal since 2006 but only now did we see the potential of earning money from it. For the second consecutive month now, we have been reaping the rewards of creating Paypal-related articles that contain our Paypal referral link.
Last May 1, we wrote about the $30 Referral Merchant Bonus that we got from Paypal for the months of April and May. This we earned by referring users to sign up for a Paypal account.
Phishing email: Your PayPal account has been limited!
May 13, 2008
You open your inbox and see an email purportedly from Paypal warning you that your account has been limited. A limited Paypal account? Oh no!
If you won’t be able to lift the limit, all funds in your account will be stuck there, meaning you can’t spend or withdraw them!
So to solve this problem, you should just click the link in the email, right?
How to earn more Paypal referral bonus
May 1, 2008
We’ve mentioned before that it’s possible to earn by referring people to Paypal. When they sign up using your referral link, you receive an initial bonus of $1.00 when your Referred Merchant has received a total of $200.00. In addition, you get 0.5% of the total amount of their payments up to $1,000 for 12 months.
In our case, we’ve already received around $30 bonus from Paypal in March until early April. Screenshot below.
How can you promote Paypal and get more referral bonuses? Here are three tips.
Receive more than $500/month and Paypal auto-upgrades Personal Account to Premier
March 18, 2008
A recent discussion in the PMT Forum is about the issue of Paypal automatically upgrading Personal Accounts to Premier/Business status if more than $500 is received in one month.
According to sources, Paypal’s newest rule is that when a user receives more than the $500 receiving limit per month, the Personal Account is automatically upgraded to Premier or Business Account.
Which Paypal account is best: Personal vs. Premier vs. Business account?
March 14, 2008
You’ve already signed up for a Paypal account but have still not decided which type to use. Read more to discover what type of Paypal account suits you best.
There are three types of Paypal accounts: Personal, Premier, and Business.
Personal accounts are, obviously, for the personal use of individuals. They can accept up to five (5) credit or debit card funded payments per year and are assessed a transaction fee. Other payments received are not charged a fee.
Premier accounts are for members who have a high transaction volume or would like to access Paypal’s Core and Premium features (explained below). Premier accounts may operate under an individual name. Unlike Personal Accounts, they can accept an unlimited number of credit or debit card payments. However, all payments received are charged a certain fee. (Paypal’s fee schedule here.)
Business accounts are for businesses, allowing them to operate under a company or group name and accept payment from customers without PayPal accounts. Like Premier accounts, they can accept an unlimited number of credit and debit card payments, although all payments they receive are charged a certain fee.
