How do I open a dispute for a PayPal Debit Card or PayPal Business Debit Mastercard® transaction?
If you've noticed a transaction or activity you don't recognize on your card, please note:
- it may have been initiated by an additional cardholder, or
- it may be a part of a pre-approved payment that you've authorized with the merchant.
Before reporting the activity or transaction, contact those who may have initiated the activity and ask them about it.
If you've done business with this merchant in the past, we suggest contacting the merchant.
To maintain the security of your account, your compromised card will need to be canceled. You'll receive a new physical card and digital version card number, expiration date, and CVV.
