More details in the discussion thread How to withdraw funds from Paypal Philippines.

Equitable PCI (EPCI) Bank Visa Electron Debit card - POSSIBLE

Confirmed in a post on the eBay.ph forum although nodules reported that her EPCI card does not have a CVV Number. Biske suggested that the CVV be requested directly from EPCI.

Xoom.com - POSSIBLE

Be warned that PayPal sometimes put a limit on accounts that use the Xoom withdrawal method. Read more about Limited PayPal accounts here.

Latest Update: according to Jericho, Xoom has now prohibited intra-Philippines transfers “until further notice.” The buzz is that PayPal does not want a non-affiliated middle-man such as Xoom to be part of the withdrawal process.

Chikka.com - POSSIBLE

According to writerservices: “Sa chikka, within minutes andyan na pera mo. Mahal nga lang in the long run kasi $7 per Php 5,000 ang kaltas (Using Chikka, your money is available in just a few minutes. However, it gets expensive in the long run because the fee is $7 for every P5,000).”

2slick shared that Chikka first verifies a new user’s identity and that the amount to be transferred can only be in certain denominations.

Biske added that Chikka can only accomodate Smart Money transfers.

Scriptlance.com - POSSIBLE

The process may seem complicated at first glance because PayPal is initially withdrawn as e-gold then converted into cash.

2slick explains how the process goes: a deposit must first be made to a Scriptlance account and the balance is withdrawn as e-gold. Received e-gold funds are then converted to cash through e-currency exchangers such as PinoyGoldeXchange.net. Expected total lead time for this process is 4 days.

Bank ATMs and Debit cards without a Visa or Mastercard logo (e.g., BPI ExpressCash, BDO CashCard,Citibank CitiCard) - Almost Always NOT POSSIBLE

If your card does not have a Visa or Mastercard logo, it probably does not support PayPal withdrawals. To confirm, try it in PayPal. Let us know if it works.

BDO Debit card with Mastercard Electron logo - NOT POSSIBLE

BDO Mastercard Credit card - NOT POSSIBLE

ChinaTrust Visa Credit card - NOT POSSIBLE

Globe G-Cash - NOT POSSIBLE

G-Cash cannot be used in PayPal because it is neither linked to any bank account nor affiliated with Visa or Mastercard. The absence of a physical card also makes it impossible to get a Card Number and CVV Number, things necessary to successfully attach a card in PayPal.
