Newbie Help Wanted PayPal

dusty6743 · #1 06-12-2017

Hello I have had a stealth account with PayPal for over 12 months now. Just had a message from them 'update account' card expiry date soon. Would it be ok just to leave it as it is with my bank account and not update any card?

My understanding initially was that a bank account was all that is needed for stealth PP account? TIA

I have left it with no card before, and just bank, and the paypal and selling was not affected.

Just make sure there is enough in balance for refunds and fees....

No real need for a card at all, if you run your stealths correctly.

It really is a bit of a myth that you need one, and with recent issues with certain cards, there are not enough positives to outweigh the negatives.

As above, it's perfectly okay to operate without a card added, so long as there is a bank account in place.
