How to use currency cards with PayPal : Instructions

[ali-s]

Having read another thread where a Dibber was stung with PayPal's conversion fee when using a currency card, I thought I'd repost instructions on how to avoid it, easy once you know how

Log in to your PayPal account, go to settings, choose payments, then manage pre approved payments, then set available funding sources ( in small print at top of list) now you get a list of cards linked to PayPal. Choose your fee free card and click conversion options, now tick bill me in currency on seller's invoice.

I have done this with my Fairfx , Clarity and Monzo cards. It works fine, you'll be charged the same as if you were using your card direct with the seller.
