We take the extra step to confirm your card so that we can verify that the card is valid and that you are the card owner. Below is a list of how much we charge to cards in different countries.

If you do not act to confirm your card by entering in the 4 digit code (or your card cannot by confirmed), the charge will be refunded 75 days from the date of the charge (60 days in Brazil). Based on certain jurisdictions, the credit may not actually post to your card for up to an additional 30 days.

If you remove your card or close your account during the time frames above, the return of the credit may not process. In these instances, you may need to contact PayPal Customer Service to have the charge refunded.

To help protect your account, PayPal uses a complex screening process for credit card payments. This helps prevent lost or stolen cards from being used for unauthorized transactions. On rare occasions, the screening process affects valid cards.

A credit card might also be denied if:
The card issuer is having technical problems that prevent authorization of a transaction. The card issuer sees a charge that doesn’t fit your normal spending patterns and blocks the transaction to protect you. You’ve inadvertently exceeded the limit on your card.

If you know that your credit card is valid but your payment doesn’t go through, you might want to:

1. Contact your credit card issuer directly. Ask why your card was declined, and whether you can still use it. If you can still use your card, please try your transaction again.
2. Pay securely online using your bank account. You can link your bank account to your PayPal account in just a few minutes. The merchant never sees your financial or other personal information.
3. Link a different credit card to your PayPal account.
