transactionWhen you try to add the card to your PayPal account, the temporary transaction of 1 USD is initiated, if you have no money on the card or have your internet transactions option blocked (which very often is an automatic option for newly issued cards) that transaction will be declined by your bank and card won't be added to your PayPal account - you will also see that error message Smiley Happy
The solution here is very simple, if you have funds on the card, please contact your bank and request to speak with online transactions department and ask them what is stopping a temporary transaction for 1 USD?
When the bank will allow the transaction, try to link the card once more - you shouldn't have any issues then!
I would like to explain that the temporary blockage of 1 USD will never be taken from your card and it's only a hold to check if the card number is correct to use it for future transactions.
