- Your bank may charge a fee to receive funds from PayPal. Ask your bank about fees for electronic funds transfers.
- If the bank is unable to process your request due to incomplete or incorrect information in your withdrawal request, the funds will be returned to your PayPal account (a return fee may apply in this case).
- Once you request a withdrawal, it cannot be canceled.
All transfers are subject to review and could be delayed or stopped if we identify an issue.
