Hello fellow mylotters, I need help. I need to withdraw my funds in paypal and my paypal is not yet verified. I would like to verify my paypal but what i have is only a BDO cash card. Can I verify my Paypal account with my BDO cash card? if it is possible how can i receive the code from paypal? or how can I get the code from paypal for verification?

Well, I don't think it is possible? To be sure...just open an account in UNION BANK. The said card is called eon card...

I have one valid ID also but this is not a problem with me when I get my eon card. Just talk to the teller that they allow to use barangay clearance. Because this is allowed with them to open an account...

I think it's impossible to verify your paypal account using your bdo card. They say eon card is the one that should be use. Other than bdo, you can also use smartmoney card. Smartmoney can also be used to verify an account.

Sadly, no. BDO Cash Card cannot be used to verify a Paypal account. You are better off using Unionbank's EON Card. It is much better when you use it for online transactions. Less-hassle too. :) Good day!

I dont think BDO in into paypal. Before, youve got to pay a hefty sum for your paypal to be activated in BDO. I asked my cousin a month ago who works in BDO and she has no clue what paypal is. Try another bank that pays less using paypal. BDO is a burden when it comes to that issue

you can use bdo savings account and bdo credit card to verify paypal account. there are many here in the Philippines who are using it. I am talking about with the bdo cash card type. but I think bdo cash card won't work.

I don't know if BDO can verify your account. But one thing I know. Look for a bank that are associated or affiliated with American Express and VISA. I hope you can change your mind in looking for a bank.

Hi there! I inquired with BDO about that too, last year. I actually did it twice, one via e-mail and the second one in a branch. But both gave me the same answer. They told me that the BDO Cash Card cannot be used to verify paypal accounts since they are not affiliated or tied up with Paypal. You better use UnionBank EON to verify your Paypal. Hope that helps. Happy mylotting!

great, i hope we can use it to verify our paypal account in the future. I can't get a unionbank eon since i only have one valid id and they need two valid id's. I wanted to link my bdo cash card but i am hesitant to do it but it's great i did do it. maybe i will lose money for doing it.

I think you can use BDO Debit Card or BDO Credit Card because they are using Mastercard which can be used in Paypal. I have an aunt working in BDO, and she told me that I should call their hotline for further instructions. But she confirmed that I can use my BDO Debit Card to link my Paypal Account. I also have a friend which uses his BDO Debit Card to withdraw his savings from the Paypal. :)
