How do I withdraw funds from my PayPal account?

You can transfer funds directly to your linked bank account or eligible debit card. 

To withdraw funds from your PayPal account:

  1. Go to Wallet.
  2. Click Transfer Funds.
  3. Click Transfer to your bank.
  4. Click in minutes or in 1-3 days
  5. Follow the instructions.

To withdraw money on the app:

  1. Tap your PayPal balance.
  2. Tap Transfer Money.
  3. Tap Transfer to bank. 
  4. Follow the instructions.

If you selected Instant Transfer, you should see the money in your bank account in minutes, but this timeframe may vary depending on the bank. If you don’t see the money in your bank account after 30 minutes, contact your bank for more information. Our team members can’t change the status of your transfer.

The Standard transfer to your bank typically completes in 1 business day, but depending on your bank's clearing process, it may take 1 to 3 business days. Keep in mind that holidays aren't business days.

Standard transfers to your eligible debit card take approximately 48 hours.
