Which ATM can I withdraw PayPal money from?

Withdrawing money directly from PayPal at an ATM in Zimbabwe is not feasible due to PayPal's operational limitations in the country. PayPal accounts in Zimbabwe are restricted to sending payments and making online purchases; they do not support receiving or withdrawing funds locally (Facebook).


🔄 Alternative Methods to Access PayPal Funds in Zimbabwe

While direct ATM withdrawals aren't possible, there are alternative methods to access your PayPal funds:

1. Use a Payoneer Mastercard

Payoneer offers a prepaid Mastercard that can be linked to your PayPal account. Once linked, you can transfer your PayPal balance to your Payoneer account and withdraw cash from ATMs that accept Mastercard. However, please note that Payoneer cards are typically issued to users in other countries, and obtaining one in Zimbabwe may involve additional steps and considerations.

2. Utilize Flipcash's PayPal Withdrawal Service

Flipcash provides a service to help Zimbabweans withdraw PayPal funds. You can transfer your PayPal balance to Flipcash, and they will facilitate the conversion into local currency, which can then be sent to your Zimbabwean bank account or mobile money wallet (e.g., EcoCash, OneMoney) (Flipcash).

3. Peer-to-Peer Transactions

Engage in peer-to-peer (P2P) transactions with trusted individuals who can assist in converting your PayPal funds into cash. This method requires caution and trust, as it involves private transactions without the security of formal institutions.


💡 Tips for Safe Transactions

  • Verify Authenticity: Always ensure that the service provider or individual you're dealing with is reputable and trustworthy.

  • Understand Fees: Be aware of any fees associated with the withdrawal process, whether it's through a service like Flipcash or a P2P transaction.

  • Maintain Records: Keep detailed records of all transactions, including receipts and correspondence, for future reference and dispute resolution.

  • Avoid Sharing Sensitive Information: Never share your PayPal account details, PINs, or passwords with anyone.


If you're considering using a Payoneer Mastercard or engaging in P2P transactions, it's advisable to conduct thorough research and possibly seek recommendations from trusted sources within your network. Always prioritize security and transparency in financial dealings.
