Paypal ATM/Debit Card

Anyone else get this? I just applied for mine, it seems pretty cool, give me your suggestions and feedback!

"Another credit card?"

Given that I have a Visa Check Card, I don't need anything that deducts from my PayPal account, let alone a card that effectively makes me lose money over time.

Nope its a debit card, and you actually get a 1.3% money back from received money, it works like your normal bank card, you can use it at the store and use it at the ATM machine.

sill means you can spend money on it..

which = BAD..!

Hmm...I just requested it considering I can use it wherever MasterCard is accepted, and I usually want to buy stuff online via PayPal, which practically nobody accepts.

Read the fine print, though: the rewards program requires a Premier/Business account where you frequently sell things on eBay with PayPal as the only payment option.

I have it and use it for several things. I try to pay my hosting with it and my travel expenses for work. The money back helps me feel like I'm being frugal.

You sell stuff on eBay reasonably frequently (IIRC it said every three weeks)?

Me? Nope. I've sold one thing on ebay so far. I generally transfer my travel money from the family bank account to my paypal account though. I also receive subscription fees from my website in my paypal account.

I've got the card from paypal, it works great, I use it all the time now Basically it works like a bank card, if you have money in your account you can use it. but with the benifits of a Master Card. Aka Online making montly subscriptions etc

Well I'd never use it at an ATM because it's considered a "foreign" bank and they'll charge $1 for each transaction.
