The debit card is called the PayPal Cash Card or Business Cash Card (if you have a business account). Go to the Cash Card page and click Get card. Log in to your account and fill out the necessary information. There are a few checks in place you need to be aware of.

If you have a PayPal business account, you will need to ensure there are no disputes or claims against you in the Resolution Center. You might need to update your account with a street address (not a post office box), phone number, date of birth, and Social Security Number. The debit card is linked to your PayPal balance, so you won’t need to go through a credit check.
