This post is to answer all the blog comments asking how to withdraw money from PayPal to Indian banks.
PayPal allows you to withdraw money directly into your Indian bank account for free if you are withdrawing more than Rs.7,000. If it is less, it charges Rs. 50 as fee. This is the better way than requesting cheque because it takes few weeks to deliver, a month for realization, and more over PayPal charges $5 fee and your bank charges approximately Rs.150 to Rs. 250 for clearing international cheque.
Follow these steps to withdraw funds from PayPal to Indian banks:
Log into PayPal and click the link “Withdraw” Then, select the option “Withdraw funds to your bank account” and click “Add Bank Account” It will ask First name, Last name, Bank Name, IFSC code, and Account Number. The thing in question here is IFSC code.
IFSC is Indian Financial System Code assigned by Reserve Bank of India (RBI) for every bank branch for easiness in transferring funds and communication. If you have an ICICI account, you can see the IFSC code printed on the cheque book itself. Get the list of participating banks and its branch codes in an xls sheet by clicking here. This is the link to the main listing page where you can find the updated list in case if it is updated by RBI and you are not able to get the XLS sheet. IFSC code is an 11-digit character and numeric code and looks like BKID0003322, which is an IFSC code for Bank of India, Gandhigram branch in Gujarat State. 3322 is the branch code and BKID is the bank code. Enter the appropriate IFSC code for your branch followed by your account number. You can also confirm it with your bank branch. After that you can select the amount to withdraw into your bank account, which readily converted into Indian rupees and showed to proceed with withdrawal.
Once you are done, you will get the money directly into your bank account in three to seven business days. I have tried to transfer the money to an ICICI account and it took only three days for getting the money. Still have questions? Post in comments.
i am doing a survey in awsurveys website.i want to know which paypal account is needed for redeeming money from awsurveys through paypal.means it should be d personal or any other
AW Surveys is a SCAM. Just google the words “AW Surveys+scam.” Stay away from that site. Personal account is enough to withdraw money from these type of sites.
I want to buy some products from USA through E-Bay. I have a PayPal Account BUT I have not link that with any of my DEBITCard ( because of some confusion in OPERATION of PayPal with INDIAN Bank DEBIT Card ). So, I want to ask you some question :
1. I have a “ATM cum DEBIT” Card of ICICI Bank. Can I link that DEBIT
Card with my PayPal Account ?
2. If I Link That DEBIT Card with my PayPal Account, Then in the time of
PAYMENT ( for some PRODUCT, bought through E-Bay), will the AMOUNT will be automatically duducted from my DEBIT Card OR, through all the reguler procedures same as e.g. BUYING RAILWAY TICKET BY USING DEBIT CARD ? ( i.e. all the process of LOGIN in my Bank Account and allowing my bank to pay through proper authentication procedures ?)
3. How will I add the money in my PayPal account ? – ( when I have BANK ACCOUNT in ICICI BAnk ? )
I have tried with my debit card to verify my paypal account, but it did not work. Although, the site says that you can verify your account with debit card, it does not seem to work. What I did was, I opened an account with HDFC and opted for International Debit Card, which allows me to create virtual credit card. With that you can purchase products from international sites and also used to verify the PayPal account. Hope it helps.
I have debit card of the federal bank,can i link it with paypal and then use paypal to shop online??Is it safe to do so? Plz give the details if its possible. Thanx.
First, THANK you for sharing your experience !
Now, I want to ask you another question about other option of Payment (through BANK ACCOUNT with INTERNET BANKING Facility).
I have ONE Doubt : “PROCESS OF PAYMENT THROUGH PayPal”
Suppose, I want to buy a product from E-Bay( cost of Rs. 1000) and want to pay through PayPal. For that payment (as far as I know) , – I have to have that amount(Rs.1000 + any other charge-if any) of money/balance in my PayPal Account. Right ? Now my question is – HOW CAN I ADD MONEY IN MY PAYPAL ACCOUNT ?
FOR THAT ABOVE PURPOSE, Suppose, I opened a SAVINGS ACCOUNT in ICICI Bank with INTERNET BANKING Facility ( through which , I can transfer money to other Bank Account)
Now, will I be able to transfer money to my PayPal Account from my ICICI Bank Account ?
I want to know about IFSC code of ICICI Bank. They have provided me the two codes one is NEFT IFSC code – ICIC0SF0002 and other is RTGS IFSC CODE – ICIC0000007
Which one i will use. ?
From FISC Code available on the net, it shows that the first code belongs to their head office in Bandra Kurla, Mumbai and the second one belongs to NEW DELHI – CONNAUGHT PLACE branch. If you have account in Connaught Place, then go for the second code and if you have account in Bandra Kurla branch, then go for the first.
Hi, naveen thanks for helping with a useful information. My question is simple:
I have a bank account in SBI With the name Yogesh Singh( please note Y and S are capital) and i have account in paypal with the name yogesh singh( Y and S are not capital) . i have about 200$ in it. Can i withdraw them into my bank, or will they reject this transaction because Y and S are capital.
That does not make any difference. You can proceed with fund transfer. Note that, while transferring the found if you have given account number or account name wrongly, the funds will be returned to your PayPal account, but they deduct Rs. 250 as charges for returning of funds.
can i link my sbi atm card with paypal
No. You need a credit card of any bank.
naveen, i tried to withdraw money and paypal says transaction is completed but still i cannot see money in my bank account
Have you entered the IFSC code correctly? Though you enter it wrongly, no need to worry about as the funds will be returned to your account. As we got Good Friday holiday and Sunday too, there will be delay in transfer. Wait for another two days and see.
yes, i have entered the IFCS code correctly but i don’t know why it is taking time.
i make my bank account on thrusday and on same day i withdraw the funds and on saturday morning i came to know that the status is complete
but still bank is not showing any money.
today i also checked but its showing no money.
it says it will take 5-7 days so, may be i have to wait till friday.
Hi,
Naveen please help me as my money is stuck with paypal account.As i dont have credit card i have withdrawl limit of 500$ per month but because i did not know my brother sent me more than my withdrawl limit and now it says that need credit card to increase my limit .Need to know can i use my friends credit card for verification?will my money get transferred to his bank if use his credit card or to my ICICI account which i have attached?
Please reply its been 20 days i did not get my money and even my brother did not get it back.
Please reply…..
Try to upgrade it with your friends credit card and see if it works. Otherwise get account at HDFC with International Debit Card. They have free virtual card creation facility. I think from that you can verify your account at Paypal. But this process takes time.
Hi,
Thanks a lot. Please clarify my doubt recently I joined in some affiliating cites like http://www.at-mails.com, http://www.be-mails.com is this cites are genuine or not i got some 100$ in my those cites. but as free member the payment will be made when ever I reach $ 2000. please tell me is it trusty.

PRANAY
This is surely a sign of scam. No one is going to pay one dollar just for viewing a website. The highest amount I have seen is two cents that is at Hits4Pay.
They are scam sites. Stay away from those.
Thanks Naveen, Now i got payment.
My experience says, you will not immediately receives payment, even if paypal says it is completed , you have to wait for 5-7 days.
Glad you received your payment at last.
Hi, naveen. i have got into a serious problem. paypal has limited my account and they are asking for credit card or bank statement.
The account in on my mother’s name and bank account is on my name. Will they accept my statement.
How to get out of this. Is there is any way to contact paypal.
Ask the PayPal support directly. It is the better choice rather than doing all the stuff which can lead to permanent ban where you will lose all the money.
hi,, i want to cxreate my paypal account in order to recieve payment from hits4pay. but i do not have any credit card so what to do now. how can i claim this money
There is no need to have the credit card to create an account. Just register for an unverified account.
How can i ask the paypal support directly. Any contact number.
For email support, log into your account and copy & paste this URL to get it https://www.paypal.com/in/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_contact-general
Their telephone support is US only to get the telephone number and pin, log into your account, and click this link: https://www.paypal.com/in/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_contact-phone
Hey, i want a new credit card verified by visa through ICCI bank
Can i apply for EMI card that can be verified by paypal.
I think you can. I think it is a credit card with EMI option pre-configured.
You can withdraw funds from your Paypal account to almost any reputed International bank in India. but you cannot add their debit card to verify your account in Paypal I have tried with almost every debit card. you require a credit card to verify your paypal account.
Hello Naveen. Do I need to get my SBI account activated for netbanking before registering it on Pay Pal?
No need.
I have debit card of the federal bank,can i link it with paypal and then use paypal to shop online??Is it safe to do so? Plz give the details if its possible.
Verifying with debit card is not working. You need to have credit card. They charge for depositing money from credit card into your paypal account. It is a bit high and it is better you purchase online products with Credit Card only at a well known online stores.
Plz tell can I withdraw money to my Bank of Baroda a/c even if Net banking is not activated on my account.
Also tell if i can withdraw money to my mother’s ICICI bank a/c which is of different name than PAYPAL.
There is no need to have Internet banking activated on your account. But, do not try to withdraw into account with different name. You may get ban on your account and your may lose the amount.
I come to know from your comments HDFC International Debit Card can be used to verify the PayPal account.What can I do to avail the same ? As I am working in abroad can I apply online for the same ? and pls.let me know whether it is safe to attach our debit card to paypal or not ?
When you apply for international debit card, you will be able to create a virtual credit card verified by VISA, which you can use for verifying the Paypal. You can get further details from HDFC customer care at customercare@hdfcbank.com
Hi,
from your post i understand we can link only credit cards to paypal and not debitcards or atm cards, right?
so, if i have to pay to an online firm with paypal, i need to have an credit card?
can u tell me about this HDFC, international debit card?
I have a Federal Bank International debit card, which i tried and paypal said your bank has rejected your card!
It is better to purchase things with credit card rather than using paypal because there is a charge to deposit money into paypal with credit card. Be careful about purchasing things online. I don’t know whether HDFC Verified by Visa option is working or not. It used to work in the past. When you apply for international debit card, you will get access to Verified by Visa option where you can create virtual credit card, which you can in turn use to verify your PayPal.
Can I link my SBI ATM debit card (in place of required Credit Card)for opening a pay pal account with Pay Pal Bank for international transactions.Further I have to say that I have no passport or visa.
You need to have credit card. Paypal won’t accept debit card.
Hi Naveen thanx for all the interest you take to answer our questions. I’ve got a question– I recently applied a Pay Pal account, as soon as i got 10$ from a fren (jus to check if its working or not) they charged me 1.1$, next day i asked them to add 10more $’s and again i see 1$missing from the actual account. Will this continue again and again? Do they charge me 1$wenever i receive funds to my account?? How can i avoid this?
Transfer of money between PayPal account will not cost you anything. They are free. They charge only if you receive money through Credit Card and they limit it to around 5 to 7 times in a year. Once you upgrade it to a business account, the fee will come down somewhat less.
Is that so. But u know the fact is i’ve received funds 4m other Paypal account only. tried 3times n noticed the same thing. so how can i claim the lost amount??
Send mail to customer service and see what they tell you. But, I don’t think you will be charged for transfer from other paypal account. One thing I can tell you that if you are receiving funds from other Paypal account, then they are deposited into your account directly. If you are receiving from Credit Card, it will ask for confirmation whether you accept it or not and also shows how many more times you can accept credit card payments.
Hi Naveen,
I just want to know that i have opened a paypal account one month back, where i used different id say. Purva@gmail.com..now using this id.. in personal detail i put different name say. nishant ..though i have given all the personal and bank details in Nishant’s name..Please let me know if there would be any problem in this?
No problem.
Hi Naveen,
I have an account with first name, middle name and last name but paypal have only first name and last name. Can i withdraw the money by first name and last name only no need of middle name ?
I don’t think it will cause a problem, but it depends on bank whether it will accept or not. If does not, the funds will be transferred back to PayPal account and Paypal charge a fee.
Hi Naveen,
I am planning to apply for an international debit card from Bank of India. Can I use it to verify my PayPal account?
If not, then please could you give me a list of banks that provide international debit/credit cards that also can be used to verify PayPal Ac/?
Please Help?

You can indeed verify Paypal using SBI Gold International Debit Cards (Visa / Mastercard) and SBI Yuva Cards (Visa)

Hi,
You have provided very very important information. Thank you so much. I have an account on shareapic.net website, they pays for sharing pics.
But the only method they use is paypal. Now I have bank account in SBI and ICICI & i have debit car for both account but those don’t get verified on paypal as we know. So will it make any problem in receiving money from shareapic.net as my credit/debit card details are not verified on paypal. Will simple fund transfer method you described will work without getting account verified?
Thanks in advance.
Hi aslamdoctor,
You will have no problem in receiving payment from sharepic.net to your paypal account even if it is unverified.
Please note that if they use their own Paypal a/c to pay you, you will be alright but if they use their credit/ debit card to pay you on your Paypal a/c you will be charged a fee of approx. Rs. 250.
Yes, the simple fund transfer method from Paypal to Paypal works. And funds from Paypal can be transferred to your local bank account too without having to verify your a/c with a card.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Harsh
Besides the above mentioned HDFC International Debit Card, SBI International Debit Card and SBI Yuva Card you can use your Kotak Mahindra Bank account to verify your Paypal a/c and lift limits too.
If you have a Kotak Mahindra Bank a/c with the netbanking facility activated , all you need to do is login and create a netc@rd. This is a virtual Visa card that can be used to make online purchases. Just ensure that the value that you assign to this netc@rd is sufficient to accomodate the $1.95 fee applied by Paypal. Paypal refunds this fee, once you confirm the expunse code (a sort of response/ identification no. for the txn.) to them and updates your a/c to a verified a/c.
Let me know if you have any clarifications.

Hi Harsh,
I am just looking for the proper answer for one of my DOUBT : “PROCESS OF PAYMENT THROUGH PayPal”
Suppose, I have already verified my PayPal Account with my ICICI Credit Card / any other Credit Card.
Now, Suppose, I want to buy a product from E-Bay( cost of Rs. 1000) and want to pay through PayPal. For that payment (as far as I know) , ”“ I have to have that amount(Rs.1000 + any other charge-if any) of money/balance in my PayPal Account. Right ? Now my question is ”“ HOW CAN I ADD MONEY IN MY PAYPAL ACCOUNT ?
FOR THAT ABOVE PURPOSE, Suppose, I opened a SAVINGS ACCOUNT in ICICI Bank with INTERNET BANKING Facility ( through which , I can transfer money to other Bank Account)
Now, will I be able to transfer money to my PayPal Account from my ICICI Bank Account ?
Or,
PayPal will always use my CREDIT CARD for payment for any of my PURCHASE ?
Will you Plz. Clearly explain all the possible way / procedure of “PAYMENT THROUGH PAYPAL”
THANKS in Advance !!!
If you are solely opening Paypal account for purchasing something from Paypal is not wise. Paypal charges approx. 1.5% for transferring money from your credit card into Paypal account. It is good directly use credit card to purchase something. Paypal A/C is like virtual bank account with which we can transfer money into others’ Paypal account for transactions, which is easy and fast way of sending money. I work as a freelancer for people around the world, so it is easy to get the payment from them into my Paypal account, then transfer into my bank account and use. I think you are thinking that using Paypal will give additional protection or some other features which are not available through the credit card, but it is not. It is a form of payment method only.
hi naveen, i have a paypal account and last month i withdraw 500$ from it. this account is not verified. but when i try to withdraw money this month it says you have reached your withdrawl limit for this month. and from my knowledge its easily over one month before last transaction. can i withdraw a total of only 500$ with an unverified account or 500$ per month.
please advice me.
Paypal imposes withdrawal and transaction limits on personal accounts. Your account limits can be seen in the section “View Limits” after you logged into your account. But, I don’t understand why you are dealing with such a huge amount via Paypal, that too with unverified account. You are at risk of “account freeze” for which Paypal is well known for. You will eventually lose your money. Their support will be poor and chances are very less to get your money back. Read all bad things that can happen when you are dealing with Paypal @ http://www.paypalsucks.com/
Never do that much huge transactions with Paypal. Use Western Union Money Transfer for that.
i have an sbi account, do i need to enter the 11 digit account number or 17 digit core banking account no. including six 0’s at starting
It is the number printed on your debit card.
Hi Naveen,
From the above posts i come to know that we can use SBI international debit card also to verify the paypal account.I would like to know the details reg. that.Can you let me know which kind of that card,how we can avail that and other all………
I will be very thankful to you.
Hi Krishna,
I never used it. One of my blog readers and staff of SBI explained it in detail above. He mentioned that SBI Gold International Debit Cards (Visa / Mastercard) and SBI Yuva Cards (Visa) works for verification.

* Your customer will see your email ID while paying the Bill
* If you have online banking facility, then you can see it immediately. As you are dependent on the manual bill, just wait for physical statement.
* Withdrawing account also needs to have the same name you have in your paypal account.
Hi Krishna / Naveen,
I have explained the cards and also given application form there for help yourselves, so drop by http://paypal.statebank.org.in to know more…

Hi, naveen, i have just got my HDFC Gold Debit card which is certified through VISA. Now how can i use it to verify paypal.
You need to attach it to “Verified by Visa” at http://www.hdfcbank.com/common/onlineservices/netsafedemo.htm
After that, you will be able to create virtual credit cards with which you can verify your paypal account. Just create a virtual credit card with around Rs. 500 and use it to verify.
This same withdrawal feature in Paypal during the bank account adding process, the BANK NAME field is a drop down box some years back, where only certain banks name are available. But now This BANK NAME field is a text field, wherein we need to enter the name of the bank.
Does this mean that Paypal now is allowing all banks in India to withdraw?? Please clarify..I want to withdraw to my ABN-Amro bank..
Thank you!
Sri Hari
Yes, you can withdraw into any bank branch, which has an IFSC code. Download the XLS sheet from the link, find your bank branch’s IFSC code and enter it in Paypal. That’s all.
Hi, Naveen could explain me about the verifigaction can i verify my account with my friend credit card. its a bussines account. which i have using for payment in my siet.
No…don’t do that. Try to get a credit card. It is a bit easy these days. You need to have a gross/net salary of 6k only. Else, see above comments somewhere SBI employee has shown a way to verify the paypal using SBI debit card.
My Last name in my personal pay pal account should be R S or RS(means there should be space or no space.
That does not matter, I think.
Hi Naveen I have a bussines account in paypal. from this account i trying to withdraw amount to my persnol account when i try this the acount holder name show my company name. I have added my personal account to the bussines paypal account. shall i withdraw there is no problem when i withdraw please clear me.

Sorry, I don’t have knowledge about this. It would be better to ask Paypal support team before doing something. You can find the direct support link in above comments. If you can’t just login and search for the link to contact them.

Hi Naveen,
I have checked the paypal account with my netsafe card in hdfcbank. But what is the thing is i don’t know where to check the paypal confirm pin which have send by paypal Could u help me please in this.
You are almost done. When you log into the Netsafe, you can see a card like image where balance is shown. At the bottom of the card, you can see a link “All Accounts/Services” Click on it and it will show you account and balance. At the bottom of that window, you can see an orange tab “Txn. Details” Click on that and you can see all the card details. There you can see the pin of Paypal. Note it and enter it in Paypal to complete the verification.
The withdrawal from Paypal to my Standard Chartered Account was successful and I got the money within 2 days.
Standard Chartered banks accounts can be used for Paypal withdrawals.
