Bank account — Your PayPal name must match your Nsave name. If linking asks you to contact support, a quick message fixes it. Currencies: USD Card — Works for paying through PayPal, not for withdrawing to the card. Currencies: USD An Algerian PayPal account can only link a US bank account. PayPal charges a flat $5 for an on-demand card withdrawal, and nothing for a scheduled monthly payout. This applies to every card, not just this one. | |
Nsave in particular
| Using the card | Online payments and subscriptions Pays from your US dollar balance, so convert euros or pounds first. It can't fund Wise, Revolut, crypto or betting accounts, or pay embassy and visa fees. |
|---|---|
| Who can pay you | Freelance and one-off payments Freelance and one-off payments to your name are fine with an invoice or payment confirmation, and a person in the US can send you under $4,000 by ACH. Payroll, regular payments from companies and business use need a business account. |
| What can close the account | Crypto trading, shared accounts Buying or selling crypto through the account, including P2P, or letting someone else use it, is not allowed (depositing your own stablecoins is fine). |
| US account details | Account and routing numbers The only bank on this site that gives Algerians real US bank details, which PayPal needs for withdrawals. You request them in the app. |
| Investing | Stocks, gold and bonds from $1 US stocks, gold and bonds, with a fee on every buy and sell. |
| Keeping your IBAN | Keep at least $1 per IBAN in your account Always keep at least $1 per IBAN, or the same in euros or pounds, in your account. If your whole account can't cover the $0.99 monthly fee, the IBAN gets archived, payments sent to it are returned, and getting it back costs $5.99 again with new details. The fee comes out of your dollar balance, or your euros or pounds if you have no dollars, so emptying an IBAN does not stop it; closing it does. |
