Hi all, i am having a challenge making payment to someone using Nigeria paypal.

The amount i want to send is $10 and i have excess on Gtb master debit card on the paypal account.

But each time i tried, this error message comes up " Your payment method isn't working. Do you want to try again with another card or bank? "

Please has anyone experience this? And if yes how did you resolve it?

Thanks.

P.S: I have be using this card on this paypal all this while and of course done my BVN

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.

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

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.

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.

I've downloaded the diabolic traffic bot, registered on microsoft azure, downloaded proxy tester.
I need you to put me through to generate the traffic.

Thanks op. I have faced similar situation before and I never bother looking for solution.

I have just reply with the details on the original thread.

Also i will suggest don't use proxy tester instead use diabolic proxy tester.

Anyway see the thread for full gist.

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.

Yea. if your card is no longer working with Paypal, disable DCC.

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
