We can withdraw money using this technique, but debit card company charging a lot as fee. Found another way to withdraw money to Sri Lankan Bank. Check it out

PayPal

PayPal

Two years back, I could still remember that we Sri Lankans can’t open PayPal account. Now things have changed and we can open an account in PayPal. But the most annoying thing is we Sri Lankans can’t receive money on Pay Pal while our neighbors such as Indians can receive money.

If you registered an account as Sri Lankan user, then you can’t receive payments from other Pay Pal users. In the other hand if you registered as a Indian, US user you can receive money to you PayPal account but you’ll have a sending limit (500 USD) and you can’t cash that money.

If your sending limit $500 reached then you’ll not be able to send money from your PayPal account. If you’re to send more than $500 then you have to verify your account by adding a credit card.

Recently one of my friends found a way to make it cash. You can withdraw the money to Get A Freelancer.com’s account and then you can withdraw the money using their debit card.

I have already requested for a debit card from them and they have approved my card too but yet to receive my card. Once I receive my card I’ll let you know the answer for the million dollar question, how much convenient will it be?

* Personally I’m not encouraging anyone to do so, till I learn the reality.

  4. I think ikobo works well, but NO Paypal withdrawal is possible. Means, it s like paypal. Or, use alertpay or moneybookers to receiv payments through paypal. But would take 45++ days to realize. OR… There is a way to receiv paypal payments almost INSTANTLY to Srilanka. Get paid through paypal & withdraw it almost immediatley. How….? Guys, want to kno ??? Wait…nothing good comes easily. This is true. NO fake.

  12. Personal Design (Pvt) Ltd is a Danish company which operates in Sri Lanka as a B.O.I. Company.(Approved by Board Of Investment in Sri Sri Lanka). We deal in Gems & Jewelry. We have lot of buyers (Individuals) around the world.

Therefore pls infome us how we could get money transfere through Paypal.

  20. GAF no longer supports this method so I am using Moneybookers to get paid. However, money-making options are severely limited without PayPal.
