Paypal has stopped issuing new Top Up cards.

Anyone know why?

Quote from their site:

"new cards no longer available


Thanks for your interest in the PayPal Top Up Card. Unfortunately we're no longer accepting new applications"

    I don't know, but I realised it when a few days ago went to their online servicing site and it said no new applications were accepted.

    My old card works anyway. It expires in December, so they may not renew it. But I don't care, just have used it twice in two years. They should rather be doing a real debit card like they do in America.
