A request to deposit funds in an etoro investment account via PayPal may be declined for a few reasons.
Check to see if:
- There are enough funds in your PayPal account or associated bank accounts.
- You are using a PayPal account that is not in your name
- You are using a credit card or debit card. Please note you can only deposit with Paypal using your bank account or Paypal balance.
- US clients must use a PayPal account that is registered in the US.
- There are errors on your bank’s side.
- There are limits on your etoro investment account.
