I dont know about nationhela but I use the safaricom mpesa visa and it just works. no manenos, no waiting for 2-3 days. Of course you cant withdraw from paypal but the point is you use it to feed your paypal account. All visa branded cards should operate the same, no?

@mwaura last time I added an ATM card to paypal you just ask your bank nicely to give you the transaction code or something.. that paypal uses to test your account. you can be up and running in less than an hour.

Nationhella & Mpesa Prepaid Card can’t link with a paypal a/c. I’ve tried.

 

Just successfully linked my ATM (Visa Branded) to paypal, I’m waiting for 2-3 days for confirmation.

 

How do I add funds to my a/c? The, “Add Funds” feature on my Paypal a/c says, “..does not currently offer the ability to add funds from your bank account” Will I have to wait for my card to be confirmed for this feature to be active, no?

I'm not very old on this list but I notice a large number of mpesa to paypal requests. Nowadays almost everybody has a visa branded card that they can use to fund a paypal account. Those wary of linking their bank card can use nationhela or safaricom mpesa visa card. Or is there something I'm missing as to why people prefer using intermediaries?
