PayPal is not the same things as having a debit or credit card. In order to have one of the cards you must have a bank account from which the card can pull money. The card can be used practically anywhere. In order to have a PayPal account you must also have a bank account to withdraw money from. PayPal is mainly used to make online purchases through websites such as eBay. You can link you card and you PayPal together, however.
