You can do this by either using the PayPal app or from your browser. It all depends on what you like. Here, we shall outline this process using both methods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although PayPal app might be of great help to you as far as linking Chime to PayPal is concerned, this process still misses a number of functionalities. As a result, some people choose to undertake the process mentioned above on a web browser. Also, this method is ideal if you do not have your mobile phone at hand. Here, you might have to rely on your laptop or computer to make these transactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this case, you should go to your browser and then search Paypal.com. You will see an option showing you where you should either sign in or sign up. Since you already have an account, you should sign in with the correct details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Having added Chime as a bank on PayPal, you can now go ahead and make money transfers. In fact, you can go ahead and enable automatic transfers such that the balance in your PayPal account will automatically be transferred to your Chime bank account. Therefore, there will be no need for you to initiate manual transfers from your PayPal to Chime. Once someone sends you money to your PayPal account, it will be immediately be transferred to the linked Chime\u2019s spending account. However, if you have not enabled this feature, you can send money manually from PayPal to Chime by either using the PayPal app or on PayPal\u2019s website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As we speak, you can now transfer money from your PayPal to another PayPal account using the PayPal app. Besides this, you can transfer money from your PayPal account to another bank account, such as Chime bank using this same app. All that you need to do is to download this app from either iOS app store or Google Play Store and then install it on your mobile device. To initiate the transfer of money from PayPal to Chime bank account, you should first open the PayPal app and then enter your login details. Here, you should ensure that you enter your correct email address and password.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once you have entered these details correctly, you will be able to see your PayPal balance. Remember that you must have some money in your PayPal account for you to send money to another bank account. Apart from this, you can only send an amount that is less or similar to your PayPal balance. For instance, you cannot have $50 in your PayPal and then opt to send $65 to a different bank account. Ideally, it should be an amount that is slightly less than $50, and the transaction will be successful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once you have confirmed your PayPal balance, you can now tap \u2018Add Money\u2019 option. Choose your Chime bank details and then tap\u2018Add\u2019 option. Enter the amount you want to transfer from the PayPal account and then tap \u2018Continue.\u2019 Review the transfer and then tap \u2018Add Y amount.\u2019 Y, in this case, represents the amount that you want to transfer.

Besides using the PayPal app, you can perform the process mentioned above from PayPal\u2019s website. All you need to do is to open your browser and then type Paypal.com. Once you are on PayPal\u2019s website, sign in to your account. For optimal results, you should enter the correct email address and password.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If everything is right, you will be able to access your account. Here, you will see a myriad of options, including the \u2018Transfer Money\u2019 option. This option is available on the left side of your dashboard. Click this option and then select \u2018Add Money To your Balance.\u2019 Here you should choose Chime as the preferred bank of choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After that, enter the amount you intend to transfer from PayPal to your Chime bank account. Once this is done, click \u2018Add\u2019 and then confirm the figures well. You will see a prompt indicating \u2018Add X Amount,\u2019 where X refers to the amount of money you want to send. If the figures are okay, click it, and then you will have sent money from the PayPal to Chime bank account successfully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is imperative to note that this option is only eligible for countries that allow PayPal users to utilize the \u2018Add Money\u2019 feature. If you live in the United States, there will be no hiccups as far as using this feature is concerned. Besides this, the process usually takes about 3-5 business days, and you will have the money in the Chime bank account. The good news is that you will not incur extra costs for you to send money this way. Once the transaction has been completed, you will receive an email from PayPal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As you purpose to send money from PayPal to Chime, remember that PayPal usually accepts Chime as a bank and not as a debit card. Therefore, you might not have the chance to add a Chime card like you would with other banks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, for you to send money from PayPal to Chime, one has to link Chime to PayPal first. After that, follow the steps as we have mentioned above. If everything is done correctly, you can expect money on the Chime bank account after 3 to 5 days. Consider these steps today, and everything will be a success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
