Does anyone know if you can connect a PayPal account to any type of the prepaid cards?

Doubtful, they want a Visa or Mastercard with a specific number that tells the computer it's a credit card.  Prepaids have a special number.
Could be wrong since I found this:

What are prepaid credit cards does PayPal accept?
Select "Debit/Credit Card" from the options, and then enter your prepaid credit card information. PayPal will only accept prepaid credit cards with a Visa, MasterCard, Discover or American Express logo.

And it has to be something that is reloadable.

Thanks. But do you know specifically what card? I know you can with like a green dot card but then you have to connect your social security number to the green dot card. I do not need nor do I want to open another bank account.  I don't know if you can connect it to like a regular credit card.  That would work if when I transferred the money to the card it would be like making a payment.

I think there are some prepaid cards you can purchase for gifts or whatever that are reloadable.  Maybe I need to look in to that.

I don't understand either of your comments. Why would you have heard anything about it. This is MY personal issue. smh  I would think you could connect it to any prepaid card as long as the card was reloadable. And it has NOTHING to do with this site at all.  Just sayin.

You can use a prepaid card as long as it has the Mastercard or Visa logo on it. It just has to be one of the ones that you can reload.
