How To Withdraw Money From PayPal In Kenya

Last Updated on October 19, 2020 By Walter Akolo 329 Comments

PayPal in Kenya

So, how can you withdraw money from PayPal?

This post keeps getting updated and gives you current and most accurate information on how withdrawal from PayPal is done.

The Problem

A few years ago, PayPal withdrawal was one of the toughest things for most freelancers to get by.

Many clients and freelancing websites pay by PayPal. Therefore, getting this cash from the internet to M-Pesa, local bank account or a Kenyan ATM was a real struggle.

But things have just kept getting easier over the years.

This post will help protect you from scammers while directing you to Kenya’s most trusted PayPal withdrawal options.

The Truth

There are three real methods that you can use to withdraw money from PayPal in Kenya. These are:

  1. Equity Bank
  2. Payoneer – A trusted method that no longer works for new applications
  3. PayPal to M-Pesa

The only direct withdrawal method is withdrawing through Payoneer, the rest are all indirect.

Let’s now check out the viable options you have…

1. Getting Money from PayPal to your Equity Bank account

Equity Bank is currently one of the slowest options for withdrawing PayPal cash. It takes 3 days to get the cash in your bank account. However, it can be convenient for those who receive bigger payments e.g. $1,500+.

If you have a local dollar account, you can receive the money there, withdraw in dollars, then exchange the dollars at good exchange rates from a forex bureu.

You can still perfectly use it to receive money to your KES bank account.

For more about Equity PayPal withdrawal, click here.

2. Using the official PayPal to M-Pesa Service

There’s an official collaboration between PayPal, Safaricom and TransferTo. Check it out here. This came in April 2018 and was an answered prayer to most Kenyans.

You can use this method to send money from PayPal to M-Pesa. Or from M-Pesa to PayPal.

Transactions take between a few minutes and 3 days to complete. Smaller amounts ($200 and below) take minutes (even one minute in some instances). The system shows you how long it will take to process each transaction.

3. How to Withdraw Money from PayPal using Payoneer

Editor’s note: Unfortunately, this method was stopped by PayPal in 2014. It no longer works for new applications. People who were using it earlier can still continue using it.

Payoneer is a friendly payment processor that is accepted by many freelancing websites and online payment platforms.

Even PayPal itself used to accept it. It is the most trusted and ONLY method of withdrawing PayPal money directly. Here, I mean that you withdraw by going to PayPal and clicking “Withdraw”. The M-Pesa and Equity Bank methods are all handled by separate sites.

When you receive the cash in your Payoneer account, you can withdraw it from ATMs and banks worldwide, including here in Kenya.

Note that joining Payoneer through any of my affiliate links will earn you free $25 once your cumulative withdrawal adds up to $1,000. I’ll also receive a commission.

Currently, when you join Payoneer, you also automatically get the Global Payment Service. This is a fantastic service that you can use to receive money from different companies all over the world. For example, you’re given a US account number, just like a local US citizen would.

When US companies pay you using the Global Payment Service, the cash is deposited into your Payoneer account.

In case you already have a Payoneer account as you’re reading this and don’t have the Global Payment Service, simply send an email to Payoneer through their online contact form and they’ll get you sorted out real quick. You can also feel free to call or chat with them.

Once again, this PayPal withdrawal method was stopped in 2014 but Payoneer is still one of the best payment services. You can use it to receive money from your clients, without using PayPal.

Bottom line

All these methods are great for PayPal withdrawal in Kenya.

It may be advisable to have all these accounts ready since that way, if you have an emergency you can make a quick PayPal to M-Pesa withdrawal.

When withdrawing volumes of cash, you can use Equity Bank or Payoneer due to the low commissions. Remember PayPal to Payoneer no longer works for new applications.

The Equity option is also great for those who would want to access loans in future. You know how hard it is for freelancers to get big loans.

At the end of the day, the great thing is that these are legit ways through which you can withdraw money from PayPal in Kenya without being scammed.

NOTE: If you join Payoneer through this affiliate link, you get free $25 once you hit $1,000 in your Payoneer account. Also note that PayPal is not the best way to receive payments. You can consider Payoneer, Paxful, or TransferWise where applicable.

Have you tried any of the above PayPal withdrawal methods? What’s your favorite?

    I am having issues withdrawing from PayPal to equity even though in the past, I managed to withdraw severally. Could there be a problem with PayPal now? Reading this post has just reminded me of the collaboration between PayPal and Mpesa. I have to try it out, now that withdrawing to my equity bank is not working for me. Thanks a lot Mr Walter.

        I”ve already linked my PayPal account with my Equity bank account. However, I’ve not made any transaction yet. Since this service was only available for US clients, I guess withdrawals will take the same time (three business/working days).

    Hi Walter,

    So, I’d just like to be clear to see if I’ve got this straight because it can all be a bit confusing.

    So when I go to the ATM with my Visa card in order to verify my PayPal account all I have to do is slip in my card and expect to see several options on the screen of which one would be “verify PayPal account”? And then I’d just simply press ‘yes’ and HEY PRESTO! My PayPal account is verified! ! !

    Is this so? And how come I’ve never noticed that PayPal option before? Please explain, Walter.

    Thank you,
    Brenda

      Hi Brenda,

      No, you don’t do it that way.

      You log in to PayPal, go to Wallet, click on “Link a credit card, fill card details, and get the requested code from your bank statement. You’ll use that code to verify. The process is quite clear from PayPal itself, when you start, you simply follow the prompts.

    Hi, Thanks for your dedication in replying to the comments. I received some money via paypal and since I had no Equity Bank account, a friend suggested i use Epay. I am not sure if it worked right because I could not understand the ticket thing. Finally I transferred the money to their email. I have not received any response. When I write to them, I get no response, please help.

      Thanks for reaching out to us through this forum. Being your first time, we appreciate you had challenges in figuring out how we operate. You withdrew your funds from your ePay account to M-pesa on Saturday when we had already closed (we close at 1pm and resume on Monday). I presume you have already been assisted this morning and that you have already received your money. I am sure the process should be more straight forward moving forward. Thank you for using our services.

          Hi Shiru. If you’re talking about PayPal, you can just use a normal Kenyan account. Charles was asking about a PayPal account that was limited for 180 days. At that time, one would need to use a US account to access the cash. Right now you can access it via Equity Bank.

    Hi Walter,
    Thank you for taking the time to answer our questions. My question is also about PayPal requiring proof of residential address otherwise they will put restrictions in my usage. They of course don’t accept P.O. Box addresses. They require utility bills, government issued statements etc.

    I can’t for the life of me think of any of these documents that would have my residential address on it. What do I do? It has to be proof that is not older than six months. They have said they will limit my usage and I can’t imagine the repercussions. Do you have any suggestions of such a document? If not, what other option of payment can I use?

        1. Can I open an Equity Kenya USD account while in Uganda or will I have to fly to Nairobi?
        2.If I succeed in setting up an account and linking it to a Kenyan pay how do I verify me address in Kenya?

          1. You can confirm that with Equity. Check out their contacts at http://ug.equitybankgroup.com/

          2. This can be tricky as well. But confirm with number 1 above.

          Sorry I’m not providing direct answers since I don’t really know how to go about the above from Uganda. Once you get the answers you can also post here for others to see. I’m sure it will be really helpful to our Ugandan audience.

    Hallo Walter…

    Just received this email…

    We’re writing to let you know that changes we’ve made to comply with U.S. banking regulations may impact your ability to withdraw funds from your PayPal account. To ensure your future withdrawal attempts to a U.S. bank account are not impacted by these changes, we need your assistance in updating your current address information.

    For security reasons, we can no longer accept a PO Box address on your PayPal account if you wish to withdraw funds to a U.S. bank account. This means if you have a PO Box as your address and you wish to withdraw funds to a U.S. bank account, you will need to provide a street address instead.

    To prevent any delays in completing withdrawal transactions to your U.S. bank account, please update your account with a street address.

    Does Kenya has ‘street address’? if not what can one do in this case? Thanks..

    Kudos walter, your blog looks awesome. I never knew we had such great potential in kenya. Also, I never imagined that there were any trustworthy fellows out there. I dream of owning my own blog someday. I think you should write about your success tips when it comes to blogging. It will be very helpful. I think it could also be important to update that epay-kenya has not yet resumed their services.
    Nevertheless, am so glad I withdrew $22.10 today and got the cash instantly. I could not believe it. I never thought it was possible to withdrawal such minimal amount. I will keep with your services whenever the need arises.
    You are really blessed. Thank you such much in helping kenyans with our paypal nightmare!

      Sending is easy. As long as your account is verified, put some money in the bank account attached to PayPal, log in to PayPal and send the cash.

      PayPal will take money from your local bank and send it to the recipient.

    By the way Walter, what is it with I&M online system nowadays? You reload your Safaricard and they don’t update your balance??? Since back in June, they started by delaying, till u send them an email only then they would update it for you. Now it seems the service is being suspended? I sent two support emails- even called them…they said they are experiencing technical difficulties of which they are repairing. But days later, service is still not functioning. I am already late in doing some online purchases. How frustrating. Is anybody else undergoing this? Thank you.

    Hi Walter. I am Samuel, and I have undergone all these processes and frustrations of waiting endlessly for Payoneer approval, PayPal saying “you can’t add a bank account at this time”, but patience and insistence won. I finally received the Mastercard 2 months ago. For those encountering the PayPal error, try calling them by phone and/or using the contact webform they use on their website repeatedly. Finally they will do a manual adjustment and add your US bank. Good luck!

      Then drama. My account was immediately limited and the transaction reversed.

      I was asked to perform a series of security actions which included confirming my credit card account, change my security questions and a change of password, to which I duly complied to.

    Hi Walter,
    when you Google the USD in KES rates you tend to get relatively high rates almost on a daily basis compared to the actual rates that payoneer offers. Google gives above 87/= but Payoneer fluctuates between 82 and 85 of course depending on the bank you are withdrawing from.

    However, my question is, what is the actual payoneer withdrawal cost from local ATMs because on their webiste it is stated $3.15 but here I see you are saying it is $2.15. And the annual fee was it really scrapped off?

    Lastly, which is the best local ATM to withdraw payoneer cash based on your experience and dollar rate?

    Reply
    • Walter Akolo says

      August 31, 2013 at 10:33 pm

      Hi Matts,

      You normally get the current rate with Google (or a Windows 7 Desktop Gadget). Of course MasterCard, just like all the other banks and services, picks its own rate, thus the Sh. 84 that has been there for some time.

      We had the $2.15/3.15 debate with one commenter once. What we ended up realizing is that it is actually $2.15. When you withdraw, go to your account, click on “view transactions” and then click on your latest withdrawal. You’ll see it written “amount less charges of $2.15” or something like that.

      I heard that MasterCard determines the dollar rates so you get the same rates across the ATMs.

      Thanks Matts.

      Just put your actual street address there e.g. Makongeni, Phase 4, Jogoo Road. Don’t use P.O Box for now. Use that on email when they approve your application. You’ll just respond to their email stating that you’d prefer to receive via P.O Box and go ahead and give them the box they should use.

      Don’t worry, they’ve delivered 100s of cards here so they’ll understand.

          Google can help you convert currency. Just Google, 1USD in KES and you’ll get the current dollar rate.

          The MasterCard dollar rate is different though. Right now it is at Sh. 84 per dollar. There is no site that can help you calculate that. Whenever you withdraw, check your Payoneer account and see how many dollars came out then calculate what dollar rate you got them at. That’s how I personally do it.

          I hope this helps.

    Thanks for being honest. For more than three years now I have wondered about how to get money from my paypal account. I have been to all major banks in Kenya, and sometimes bankstaff look at me as though I had sprouted horns in my nose, whenever I enquired about paypal payment.

    I had a oDesk payoneer card (this got lost) but recently I applied for another card. Hoping to get it any time from now. Last time it did not work for me because I did apply for a US bank account. I have already done that now. I have had to live many jobs because the employers insist on paypal payment only

            You cannot withdraw at a KCB ATM as of now but you can withdraw to the account, then use the Payoneer card at a Barclays, CfC, PesaPoint or I&M ATM.

            To withdraw from PayPal, just add the bank account to “Profile” then be going to “Withdraw” whenever you want to withdraw it.

Now to withdraw I receive mail telling me to go to a web address they’ve given me and select an item valued at the amount given then follow instructions.

      Check the back of your ATM card and call your bank to see if its enabled for online transactions. If not ask them how to do it or register with another bank such as Equity where the card is automatically enabled.
      – Login to PayPal and click on “Link and Verify Credit Card”
      – Follow the prompts.

      Let me know how it goes.

        Thanks for the response. Now, another question, I got this from payoneer, “Your card will be shipped by Regular mail”. Does this mean they will use my P.O Box, or what is this “regular mail”…..

          I can’t be sure. You’d have to ask them in a response and the good people there will sort you out.

    Hi Walter. I want to apply for this Payoneer US payment Service. But I have a few questions. First, how can I get them to send me the card via p.o box and not street address since street addresses are a myth in Kenya. Second, can I wait for the card and use it to verify my Paypal account in Kenya? Third, how long will I have to wait? Thanks

      Hi,

      1. Use street address on application. When they send you the approval mail. Respond by telling them to send via P.O Box and give them the details. They already know that so that’s no biggie.

      2. You can’t use the card to verify your PayPal account. For that you’d need a local card. Simply do the following.

      – Check the back of your ATM card and call your bank to see if its enabled for online transactions. If not ask them how to do it or register with another bank such as Equity where the card is automatically enabled.
      – Login to PayPal and click on “Link and Verify Credit Card”
      – Follow the prompts.

      3. You will have to wait for a month.

      Thanks

        Much appreciated. I have just applied through your link and hope I will receive the bonus when my account is active. However, I am unable to apply for the US payment service because on clicking the link, a Microsoft outlook email starts. Do you apply for the Us payment service via email, if so what details do you send? Thanks

          For US Payment service, yes, you apply via email. Just say that you want to apply for the US payment service, one sentence is enough.

          They’ll take it from there.

    Firstly, I’m begin to feel the beginnings of an addiction to your site. If it wasn’t for this page, I would be fretting and sulking about how I can’t get my money from paypal so thanks. On that note, I used your link for a payoneer card but I am wondering if I should give them my p.o box address instead of my physical address since they said they would send it via “regular mail”? Which did you use to get yours?

      I am glad you found my site useful. I used my Box address. When you reply to one of their mails, just tell them you’d want to receive it via P.O. Box. They’ll ask you some few questions, answer them and you’ll get your card in a few short weeks.

      Thanks once again and feel free to ask more questions.

    UPDATE:

    Avoid Nationhela At ALL costs. I had a balance of 1k and on Saturday I loaded my card with 12k, to my surprise When I checked my balance an hour later, it was 11k. I called them and they told me some crap about my card having a negative balance before I loaded it.

    I called them continuously, yesterday I even went to their card center at Nation Center 8th Floor and talked to several of their agents. They promised me they would generate a statement end of day and update my balance accordingly.

    As of now NOTHING. In their online portal all my last month’s transactions are not showing.

    This is the 3rd time they are doing this to me. Last time I assured them I would not leave their offices if they did not give me my money. They eventually had to after they realised I wasn’t going anywhere, which is more proof that they know what they are doing and it may be deliberate planned system failures to steal a few hundreds or thousands from clients that may in the midst of many transactions go unnoticed. Unluckily for them I check every single line of my statement

      You can try asking Felix Okoli of Make Money Kenya http://www.makemoneykenya.com/

      He states that he’s bought lots of stuff from eBay.

      Just go to his blog and look for his contacts on the contact page.

    Hi guys, awesome post By the way

    This is my 4th Payoneer card I’m ordering. The first one was for oDESK, it apparently reached Kenya But I never got it, so they sent me another one, over an year later I’m yet to get it.

    I then ordered The Freelancer One, this time they added a “Click here if you want your card delivered via P.O Box” Section, So I’m hoping I get This one this time round.

    And Oh yeah, I ordered another via your link. If I get both I’ll decide which to keep, freelancer or This one(I’ll load 100$) for the bonus. The Freelancer Card is cheaper 9.95$ initial fee, then 1$ per Month if I’m not wrong.

    Another Thing, a pal of mine, a developer who works on freelancer a lot told me he withdraws in U.S dollars from some Bank’s ATM here, I think he told me it was Chase Bank. He tells me you better better rates (Only significant if you are withdrawing over 200$)

      4th Payoneer card? I really hope you get it this time around. About the fees, I believe Freelancer Payoneer card should be the same to the normal Payoneer Card, unless things have changed. The monthly fee is usually between $1 and $3 depending on your level of activity.

      I’d really like to know which ATM withdraws in USD. Kindly confirm and let us know.

    System test complete. Payoneer took their close to $30 today. Our local KCB ATM never worked with my card. I had to go to next town to look for another ATM machine, I did find Barclays and I asked the soldier to allow me use their ATM. He did, I was glad. I withdrew the money with no difficult. I am now waiting for my $25 bonus. I now want to be very serious with freelancing now that have confirmed the system is working fine. I am even planning to find time and have writing refresher training.

    I did exactly how you directed me to do. I loaded my card but they’ve not cut their annual fee why? because i thought that is the first thing they should do. Another thing is this, in addition to the $30 the card is supposed to chew, how much can I add to that I can the $25 bonus. In this case $70 or $100. I want to walk to our Local ATM with caution which banks you mean any ATM as long as Mastercard branded you mean equity, KCB or Coop this are only banks in my village.

      Hi Dennis,

      Unless they changed their system today, they should cut the $30 activation fee. Just log in to Payoneer and see how much is there.

      To get the free $25, load $100. After you withdraw you’ll get the $25.

      All ATMs with MasterCard signs should work apart from Equity. So, in your case, KCB should do. Others to look out for include I&M, CfC, Barclays or PesaPoint.

      Let me know how it goes.

          Sorry for the challenge you are facing.

          The only way to send money from PayPal to Payoneer is through the US Payment service. Once they respond to your request, they’ll tell you exactly how you should do it. You can initiate a live chat with Payoneer right now and they’ll tell you the status of your US Payment service application.

          Meanwhile, you can use my services or other PayPal to M-Pesa services to get your cash. In a few days/weeks, you should have your US Payment service and will be able to withdraw cash easily from PayPal to Payoneer.

          I hope that helps.

Guys if you’re still there just tell me how to proceed I have been depending on you so much anyway complete the job. Help me load this card.

    You know I thought this card was just like the local ATMs but its very different, my friend said this is a smart card is it true? Mine is also very brittle than a local ATM, which is abit hard. Anyway if anyone doesn’t have this card let them know they’re missing something nice. In fact, this month I have freelanced very little this month but when I saw this card was motivated, I have to fill it with money.

      – Activate the card with the instructions you received
      – Use the US Payment service details you were given to add US Bank account on PayPal
      – When withdrawing cash, click on Withdraw then send to that bank account
      – You can also link the card to Fiverr (if you are a level 2 seller), Freelancer, Elance etc.

    Just open both right now. Both will be active immediately but you’ll get your Payoneer card in a month.

    Your Co-op card should work fine. Just do as the article says.

    It will take you 1 month 3 days to make the first withdrawal then the rest will be in 3 day intervals. More details on these methods in the article below:

By the way, which companies are the best to write for? Any ideas besides Elance, Freelancer and iWriter? You seem like the person who’d know more. If you continue like this, we’ll vote you in for president!

    Thanks and regards,

    Well, I’m already exhausted with the whole Paypal thing; that aside, I’m on M-banking but it’s giving me just three digits. Is there a way to check my statement online (guess I should be asking my bank this)? Well, I may have to go to the banking hall for the statement or wait for it in my mail. I’ll keep you posted. Thank you very much!

      Sorry about the hustle. The good thing is that you do it once and forget about it. Don’t give up yet.

      In case 3 digits still appear, you can contact PayPal support and ask them for assistance.

      Yeah, please keep me posted on your progress.

    Hi Walter,

    According to Paypal, the code should look like this: PayPal*1234 CODE or PP*1234 CODE

    However, what I’ve gotten is *123 i.e. a star and only three digits. How do I go about it? Do I just key it like it is? I’ve already tried twice and failed. The third fail would make them dismiss my card. What should I do?

      Hi Albert,

      Did you get the statement from an ATM? Make sure the date and time is right. It should start exactly as PayPal instructed and I believe they should all be digits, no star. You may need to rush to the ATM again and get another statement to just clarify.

      I would also advise you register for M-banking, that way you’ll be receiving SMS notifications of your account activities. Personally I got the text with the code in less than one minute.

      Kindly keep me posted.

    Albert again. I just used the 16-digit number at the mid-section of my card and it went through. They’ve just charged the $ 1.95. Let me wait for it in my statement. If it goes through, I’ll link and let you know asap.

    Hi Walter,

    Like you told me – see 22/08/2012 – I’ve gone to my bank and asked for online banking, which has been granted. However, as I try to use the Equity Bank Visa Debit card, for paypal verification, I get the message, ‘Card Number: You have entered an invalid or partial credit or debit card number. Please check your entry and try again.’ What could be the problem? I thought my verification problems would be over by now. For the card number, I’m using the number right below my name. Please advise.

    Regards,
    Albert.

    Hi Walter. Just received mail from Payoneer approving my card and they will be sending it by late next month. They also sent another mail with US Payment Service information (BANK NAME, ACCOUNT TYPE, ACCOUNT,ABA(Bank Routing Number)) but I have to verify.
    To verify this service and begin receiving payments:
    I have to complete the US Payment Service Questionnaire
    Submit a copy of government-issued photo ID

    Did you all go through this process? What did you fill in the questionnaire.

        Yes, with US Payment Service you have to fill in the questionaire. Reedfanuel, are you on the US Payment Service program? If not you need to apply through the link below:

        http://www.payoneer.com/USPService.aspx

        It is better if you receive both the US Payment service and your card at the same time.

        Benleem, just fill it in with the correct information. Is there a specific question that you find difficult?

      Sorry for that. I guess they want to market their general purpose card and therefore don’t grant access to the rest.

      You can do the following:

      1. Buy the General Purpose for 1k and some monthly fees 2. Buy the NationHela card for Sh. 500, get the Sh. 500 back in the card. Use it to verify PayPal after 3 days. This works fine and may be the easiest option. 3. Join Co-operative Bank, Young Innovators Account (Free to join, no monthly fees). Ask them to grant the card online access and use as soon as you receive your ATM card.

      I really hope that things work out well.

    Totally agree Benleem, reed should weigh the options.

    I personally use the normal Visa card. It took me less than 5 minutes to get online access and less than 3 minutes to verify PayPal. I have bought a lot of stuff online with the card with or without PayPal. Below is the link to KCB contact center. Call them now and see if they can grant you access without you having to go there.

    http://www.kcbbankgroup.com/ke/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=123&Itemid=164

    You can also use the NationHela card. Buy it for 500 and get the 500 back in the card. After 3 days you can use it to verify PayPal. Another free option for you there Reed. A friend of mine used it last week and had his PayPal verified in minutes.

    Benleem, thanks for the good news about ePay. I can’t wait to hear about their new rates.

    Many good things coming up on freelancing in Kenya!

    The GPS from KCB takes about a week and it comes with a lot of advantages and you hardly need a bank account to use it-some use it as one. However, weigh your options and have Walter’s suggestions, above, in mind. There are so many ways of verifying Paypal. You can even talk to E-Pay for it and I believe it is much cheaper. Be wise about it.

    That reminds me, the word in the street is that Epay will be making adjustments to their charges soon; can’t wait to see whether they beat the problematic Nationhela.

      Yeah, most don’t know anything about PayPal. Have they granted your card online access? After they grant it, you’ll just go to PayPal and verify yourself. Their role in this is to just give access so that you can be able to make online transactions. Once they grant it you’ll be able to also make non-PayPal transactions. Many guys have successfully linked KCB Cards so don’t worry, it should work out.

          That’s so strange. It should take them minutes to do that. Behind your KCB card there should be some contact numbers. Those should lead you to their card center. Call them and ask them how you can go about getting online access.

      Reedfanuel, do not ask them about a card to verify paypal. Ask for KCB Visa General Purpose Card and for just a thousand bomb, you will be ready to go. I used it to verify Paypal and do some online purchases. The person you contact is specifically from the Card Center and not the usual PR guys you find hapo mbele kwa bank. They will give you their contact including some way of accessing the cards hotline or customer experience center among other things.

          Hi reedfanuel,

          KCB general purpose card is an option but not the only one. I normally ask why buy when you can get free. There are two cards which you buy for that 1k, the KCB one and another I&M one in case you want to buy. Feel free to either buy or use the one you already have as long as it is branded VISA. Both are in the article above.

          You cannot use Payoneer Card to verify. After verifying PayPal with the option you choose (either free card or the bought ones) you can apply for a Payoneer Card and the US Payment service using the links in the article.

          Keep us posted on how it goes.

      Thanks a lot for your comment.

      I am so happy you have received the card. It is quite easy to verify PayPal. What you need to do is first go to your bank and ask them to allow your debit card online access. You can choose either temporary or permanent access depending on your preference.

      Next, go to PayPal and log in. You’ll see a link allowing you to verify your card. Click on that link and follow the instructions. You will need to have at least Sh. 200 for you to verify. PayPal will withdraw this cash from your bank and deposit it in PayPal. Your account will then be verified and you’ll be free to send and withdraw as much as you want.

      All the best 🙂

    Just spoke to a NationHela customer care dude and he told it is possible to top up my card with any Paypal account. I think it works. I’m still a little bit apprehensive but it happens every time there is a new kid on the block. Happened to me in 2009 when I started using Epay but I have never had a reason to mistrust them. I believe this will work as well. Otherwise I’m really happy for what is happening in our country. Thanks for your continued hardwork and industry, we are the reason everybody wants a chunk of us.

      They accept P.O Boxes. Tell them on your email that you wish to use a P.O. Box. They’ll ask for some physical address details. You can give them your physical address, it’s alright for their record keeping reasons. An example would be Something like Makongeni, Block J4, Jogoo Road. After they get those details they’ll agree to send via P.O. Box.

      Follow this link http://www.payoneer.com/EmailForm.aspx to send an email to Payoneer requesting for a MasterCard. They’ll reply with a few questions which you’ll need to answer properly.

      Once they approve your card, even before you receive it in your mail, follow this link http://www.payoneer.com/USPService.aspx to apply for the US Payment service. Alternatively, you can still send them a 2 sentence email requesting for this service (note: do this after they approve your MasterCard)

      Your card should arrive in your postal address within a month. By then your US Payment Service will have already been approved. You’ll be given instructions on how to add this US Bank to your PayPal and will then be able to start withdrawing cash through this service.

      Feel free to ask any more questions

    I have used e-pay to transact money to and from paypal account. I have also used moneybookers (skrill). Skrill is very convenient and the fee charged is low compared to others. I am looking for a way to withdraw from paypal to Skrill, so that I can then withdraw from skrill to my bank account here in Kenya. I have come across this post that claims you can attach a credit or debit card, then transfer funds from Paypal to Your card. http://nallabee.com/how-to-withdraw-money-from-paypal-in-kenya/
    Check and confirm whether this is true and how are the charges

      Hi Zeph,
      Thanks for your comment. I have checked out your link. There are some things there that are not true.
      1. You cannot transfer cash from PayPal to Skrill.
      2. If you get the Payoneer card, you can use it to withdraw in MasterCard branded ATMs and not Visa.

      I have indicated the fees in my post above but I always advise you crosscheck with ePay or Payoneer in case there are any increases. Personally I recommend Payoneer due to their extremely low fees and you can withdraw in any MasterCard ATM in whichever country you are in. Even if you are in Tanzania for a vacation, you can just go to a Barclays ATM and withdraw Tanzania Shillings!
      Feel free to ask any more questions.

        Thanks Walter, However, I have checked my Paypal and Skrill accounts and they both have an option of attaching a debit card. So I was wondering, is it possible to attach the same card in Paypal and Skrill, then transfer money from Paypal to the debit card, and then from the debit card to Skrill.

          You are welcome Zeph.

          They have the option of attaching debit cards. Sorry I am not sure if you can send the cash from your Payoneer debit card to Skrill. I believe you should so you can try it out and let us know.

          One thing I can advise you is to eliminate middlemen as much as possible. PayPal to debit card will cost you something, debit card to Skrill will cost you something else then Skrill to bank will be another cost. You can eliminate these extra costs by just doing PayPal to card and withdrawing then deposit to your bank personally for free. On the other hand you can be doing Skrill to your bank account straight without going through anything else.

          Another thing with Skrill is that they have a standard fee of Sh. 600 or something like that when you deposit to your account. Therefore avoid depositing small amounts since this amount is fixed whether you withdraw 20 dollars or 1000 dollars. You can confirm about the fee if it is still the same through your Kenyan bank, it may have changed.

      You are most welcome. That’s why I created this blog in the first place.

      Sorry for your frustrations.

      You can simply contact Payoneer Support through the links provided in the article above. They will help you get a free MasterCard and a free US Payment Service which is sort of a virtual US Bank Account. Additionally, you’ll be given step by step instructions on how to add that account to PayPal. After this is all set up, you’ll be able to send cash from PayPal to your card and withdraw from any MasterCard ATM worldwide. You don’t even have to change the country, name or anything, just use the real ones.

      Hi Kawumah,

      The above process will help you get a US Payment service which is similar to a US Bank Account. You’ll add it to paypal where it says “Add Account”. It will be treated exactly like a US Bank in many platforms. You can also check out different known banks such as Barclays and see how you can open an offshore account. Opening an actual US Bank account may require you to actually go to the US and open one. That’s as much as I know of it.

      May I ask, what exactly do you want to open the US account for?

      Hi,
      You can load your Payoneer card using a debit card but it has to be MasterCard and not Visa. You can’t verify your PayPal account through the Payoneer card, it will not work, just use your normal debit card, whether it is for Equity, Barclays e.t.c.

      Yeah, PayPal charges a small 1.95 fee that they’ll deposit in your PayPal account.

Can i use a family members card to verify PayPal? it is now impossible to withdraw money from PayPal to payoneer without first verifying the latter. i intend to receive the next payment via moneybookers instead of paypal and then send the payment to payoneer, which i can then use to verify paypal. then again, is it legal to remain with a unverified moneybookers/skrill account and be transferring payment to paypal.?

          Sorry about the challenge you’re facing.

          Please DON”T use a family member’s card, unless they create an account under their names.

          My best advice is you go and apply for an account in a good bank like Equity, get your card and use it to verify PayPal.

          On your other query, you cannot send money from Moneybookers to PayPal.

      Hi Steve.
      Thank you very much, I really appreciate.
      You may get some uninformed staff in Barclays, KCB e.t.c. who will tell you that. Here’s the truth. LET NO KENYAN BANK lie to you that they can help you to either deposit or withdraw from PayPal. An antifraud legislation has to be passed first for the banks to be allowed to deal with PayPal. The only thing you can do with your ATM card is to link and verify your account, period. The two ways above are the only legit ones in Kenya. Be sure that as soon as the Kenyan banks will be allowed to transact, you’ll see it here first.

      Now, the card is will be posted on your mail. The physical address is where you live, whereas the mailing address is the P.O. Box. This is just a formality. Let’s say you live in Example Estate, Mtihani Road, you can provide this as your physical address. They won’t send it there though, they’ll still send the card on your P.O. Box after 30 days.

    You can use the card itself to buy things online as a Visa card. In short, you can use it independent of PayPal. As for PayPal, you can link the card with PayPal, that will just get your PayPal account verified but you won’t be able to either deposit cash with the card or withdraw with it. Let me know if you have any more questions.

        Ikram,

        Do not hesitate to ask questions, I will answer all of them.

        If you load the card you will just use the card to purchase, not PayPal, those are two different things. Purchasing through PayPal will require you to load your PayPal account. When there is cash in your PayPal account, then when purchasing something, just look for the PayPal button in the payment section.

        In case you have money in the card, you can still buy stuff online. Instead of using the PayPal button, you will use the Visa/MasterCard section. Here, you will give your details such as the card number, name e.t.c. Check out this link for more about the card:

        http://www.safaricom.co.ke/index.php?id=1229

        The only part where the card and PayPal can cross fingers is when you want to verify your PayPal account. When you sign up with PayPal, you are given a withdrawal limit of $500. To lift this limit, you’ll need to link and verify your credit/debit card. You can use either that M-PESA Prepay Safari Card or any other ATM card to do this. You can also find out more on that from the links below from PayPal itself.
