Verify With a Bank Account

Step1Gather your bank account information, including the bank name, account number and routing information.

Step2Log in to your PayPal account. You will be at the "My Account Overview" page.

Step3Look for the heading "Activate Account" and click "Add Bank Account." You may also add a bank account by going to the "Profile Summary" page and clicking on "Bank Accounts" in the "Financial Information" column.

Step4Enter your bank information and hit continue. PayPal allows for two ways to verify using a bank account: if you have online banking access, you can offer your login information to your financial institution's website, and PayPal will check the information to instantly verify your account. Alternatively, PayPal will make two small deposits into your banking account.

Step5Check your bank statements for the PayPal deposits. Return to the verification page by clicking the "Confirm Bank Account" link on your Account Summary page, and then enter the amounts of the deposits.

Verify by Applying for a PayPal Plus Credit Card

Step2Click the "Plus Card" link. You will be redirected to a page entitled "PayPal Plus Credit Card."

Step3Locate and click on the "Apply Now" button.

Step4Fill in the empty fields on the application form. Many of them will be filled in with information PayPal already has from your account.

Step5Decide whether you want to enroll in the Account Security program. If so, check the box. Then read the "Terms and Conditions" of the card.

Step6Hit the "Accept and Submit" button. In less than 1 minute, PayPal will tell you whether or not you have been approved. If you are approved, it will automatically verify your PayPal account
