I think i just got answer to my question. I never knew GTBank has sent me notice of transaction rejection, here is the message: Declined Card Transaction – DCC Restriction Thank you for using your GTBank Naira MasterCard. Please be informed that your transaction with the details below could not be completed because you have selected the DCC payment option (Dynamic Currency Conversion) that allows you to pay in Naira, which has been temporarily restricted on all our cards. Please reattempt the transaction and select the currency of the country you are transacting in. But the problem now is i am not the one selecting the so called DCC payment option it is the paypal. What they are doing is let you select the foreign currency you want to pay ( in my case USD ), their system automatically detect your country IP then do currency from your selected foreign currency to your country currency ( in my case USD to Naira, imagine their conversion rate $1 = N326.86 lol ) Now i don't know if there is anyway to stop paypal from auto converting to Naira but use USD because this what GTBank is saying in their message. Seriously i need to do this transaction. homebase: |

Well, i solve the challenge myself with the help of Google and paypal online community. For the benefit of others who may face similar challenge in future, here is the solution. I searched on Google " disable paypal Dynamic Currency Conversion ". Thank you GTBank for letting know the tern DCC Then i saw this tip on paypal community to disable auto conversion: My Account -> Profile -> My preapproved payments -> Set Available Funding Sources) -> Conversion Options (for card you'd like to change this option)-> Bill me in the currency listed on the seller's invoice -> Submit Hope, it helps 3 Likes |

If you are asking about paypal conversation rate it was $1 = N328.86 But if it is about the GTBank rate, i am yet to receive the alert so i don't know yet. demo4ril97: |
Re: Have You Experienced This With Nigeria Paypal? by homebase(m): 4:24pm On Sep 09, 2016 |
And i say a big amen . About the charge, i cant really say for now because GTBank is yet to send $10 naira equivalent conversion alert. But i am hoping it won't exceed $1 to N400 maximum. mimon79: |

The DCC Payment method is selected by Paypal. You have to change it yourself. I also had that issue. Select the card and change its coversion option. Sometimes you are allowed to change this before checking out. As for Exchange rate, as at two days ago, it was N410 to $1 for payment. homebase: |

You have card restrictions even if. The best is to get a Virtual card connected to your Paypal then pay online as high as $2,500 check https://www.nairaland.com/3383087/usd-visa-virtual-card-fund for more info |
