How PayPal Works for Buying Paysafecard

PayPal works for buying Paysafecard through authorized online resellers, not through paysafecard.com itself. The official Paysafecard website does not accept PayPal as a payment option in most European markets. Instead, platforms like Dundle, Eneba, and Kinguin are authorized to sell Paysafecard vouchers and all support PayPal at checkout. You pay with PayPal, receive a 16-digit PIN code by email within seconds, and use that code anywhere Paysafecard is accepted.

Vouchers are available in fixed denominations: typically €5, €10, €25, €50, and €100. Paysafecard Flex offers custom amounts between €10 and €150 *(Paysafecard, 2025)*.

Paysafecard codes are region-specific. When selecting a voucher on a reseller site, confirm the country setting matches your own. A French €25 Paysafecard is intended for use in France and may not be accepted on platforms set to a different region.

Step-by-Step: Buying Paysafecard with PayPal

Step 1: Go to an authorized reseller that accepts PayPal

Open a verified Paysafecard reseller that lists PayPal as a payment method. Dundle is a reliable choice in Europe: clear checkout, PayPal support, and instant code delivery.

Step 2: Select your voucher denomination and country

Choose the amount you need, such as €10, €25, or €50. Set the country to match your own location. This matters because Paysafecard codes are region-locked.

Step 3: Enter your email address at checkout

Add the voucher to your cart and proceed to checkout. Enter the email address where you want the PIN delivered. No account registration at the reseller is required.

Step 4: Select PayPal and complete the payment

At the payment screen, select PayPal. You will be redirected to log in to your PayPal account and confirm the transaction. Once confirmed, you return to the reseller's confirmation page.

Step 5: Copy and use your Paysafecard PIN

The 16-digit code appears on the confirmation page and is also sent by email. Use this PIN at checkout on any platform that accepts Paysafecard.

Fees, Limits, and Availability

Most authorized resellers sell Paysafecard vouchers at face value with no added charge for using PayPal. Some platforms include a small service fee shown in the checkout total — check the amount before confirming.

One ongoing cost to factor in: Paysafecard charges a monthly inactivity fee of €4 on any unregistered voucher balance left unused for more than 30 days *(Paysafecard, 2025)*. To avoid this, register a My Paysafecard account after purchase and add your code there. Registered accounts have a 12-month window before any inactivity fee applies. For purchases over €50 in a single transaction, Paysafecard requires a verified My Paysafecard account to complete the purchase.

Paysafecard is available across most of Europe, including Germany, Austria, Switzerland, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Spain, Italy, and Poland.

Planning to buy more than €50 in Paysafecard credit at once? You will need to create and verify a My Paysafecard account first. Resellers cannot bypass this limit.
