    Hi.

    Can I setup PayPal with my ATM/VISA debit card and pay for things online with only this? Do I also need to setup my current account or is that only for receiving money? Can I receive money if I only setup with my ATM/VISA debit card?

    Cheers.

    All you need to do is link your debit card with paypal. Go to profile tab and add/edit bank account. They send a 6 digit code to you're mobile. Job done.

    Did you mean goto 'Add/Edit credit card'? I have already added my debit card that way. It did not send a code to my mobile phone though, it sent a test amount to my online current account for me to confirm.

    Must my current account also be linked to PayPal or am I all set with only Debit Card?
