Paypal gave me a bonus!


Logged into my paypal account today and found out that PayPal just gave me a bonus.

Now… the big question is, why did PayPal give out this bonus? As far as I remember, I did not promote PayPal at all.

Did any of you out there get this bonus from PayPal as well?

If yes, is it always the same amount? $1.95 USD.

Please leave a comment below if you know anything about this bonus. I’ll probably check with PayPay in the mean time.

      Hmm.. I just check my paypal accounts. I got no bonus. I guess you might have been using Payppal on ebay or somewhere a while or for a huge amount.

      I would like to to know why as well. Please keep me post.

      it is because you verified your credit card/debit card before and they deduct some of your money and now they debit back to you.

      abc, I believe you’re right. I did indeed verify my status via a credit card. So the $1.95 is a return from Paypal.

      Probably the displayed message should be something like Paypal Verification Return rather than bonus.

      What you received from paypal is an interest payment.

      Aku juga dapat mas $1.95.Tapi kira kira itu kenapa ya?
      Kayaknya belum ada yang diajakin de.
      APa ini cuma cara pihak paypal untuk menarik perhatian kita.Trus mereka nanti kasi potongan yang besar untuk nutupin yang 1,95$?

      Masih penasaran ni !

      Yes I agree, the 1.95 is the refund of the varification ammount.

    12. Magnetschmuck Online Shop - March 31st, 2009 at 12:55 pm

      It’s some sort of refund. When they verify your account, they bill a certain amount on your credit card, then refund the US$1.95. Well, it’s easier to transact in online shops using a verified paypal account.

      Well paypal usually deposit a small sum of money in your account to verify that it’s indeed your account.

      i think that’s the money you paid/used for the verification. ^^

    22. AM - January 7th, 2010 at 7:06 am

      No, “Article Directory”, it was an not interest payment. It was a refund for the account verification. PP charges your bank/credit card account $1.95 so you can recieve the verification code. Then after you follow the steps and verify, they will refund your PayPal account in the amount of $1.95. I agree with a lot of the commentors…why does PayPal call it a “Bonus”? They should call it a “Refund for Account Verification.” A lot less confusing!

      You can also use Payoneer debit card Mastercard to verify your Paypal. Use this card to receive or pay online and offline. You can get this card for free and delivered at your doorstep.

      Lately I’ve experienced bad things in my paypal account but it was resolved. I hate those people who are trying to hack the accounts of paypal users.
