Why does PayPal keep rejecting my credit/debit card


When purchasing or buying products and services online, PayPal is one of the most commonly used payment gateway used by the e-commerce sites to allow customer to pay for the invoices. PayPal secure payment allows users to pay with their PayPal account balance or direct debit from bank account if registered, or by using credit card such as Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express.

However, when users attempt to make a payment by using credit card without logging in to PayPal account, occasionally PayPal will reject, or doesn’t accept the credit card users desired to use with the following error message:
If you're credit/debit card is being rejected by PayPal with the message
"The card you entered cannot be used for this payment. Please enter a
different credit or debit card number." it could be due to one of the
following reasons:
1. Your card is associated with a specific PayPal account, and you're not
logging in with that particular account.
2. Your card was associated with a PayPal account that has been closed.
3. You've exceeded your card limit with the PayPal system.
4. Your email address is raising a red flag in PayPal's system.
5. You have problems with your cookies. It's recommended you clear your
cookies and try again.
6. You've linked the card to an account, but have not yet confirmed it.

The credit card you entered cannot be used for this payment. Please enter a different credit card number.
