PayPal Mastercard Benefits

[Bubba Scruggs]

According to Mastercard, "BusinessCard" holders are eligible for benefits such as the MasterRental program for car insurance on a rental car.

I just spoke with someone at 1-800-MC ASSIST who confirmed my card had all the benefits activated. They were going to send me a benefits package, but being in Canada their system wouldn't take my postal code.

I was planning on renting a car next week so I'm hoping that if I use my PayPal MC I can avoid having to pay for the extra insurance. Does anyone have any experience with this?

Just spoke with a Paypal card rep and she confirmed that Paypal debit card holders ARE covered under the MasterCard Benefits package.

Does that apply to the Debit card? I never applied for the PayPal credit card, but I do have a "PayPal Mastercard" that's a debit card where I can withdraw money from my PayPal balance and stuff.

A regular bank debit card that's Mastercard is valid for car rental, there wouldn't be any reason why others would be exempted from benefits if they're part of the same program.

yes I was referring to the Paypal Debit card which is a Mastercard.
