How to add money to a Paypal sandbox account, after it has been created?

I specified an amount that was too low for my testing needs, when creating a personal paypal sandbox account. Is there any way to add money to an account, after it has been created?

Is PayPal sandbox real money?

In Sandbox mode, the PayPal gateway functions exactly the same as in Live Mode except transactions do not involve real money. To run sandbox mode you'll need a developer account from https://developer.paypal.com.

Why is there no add money option in PayPal?

Why you're unable to add money to your PayPal balance. If you keep trying to add money to your PayPal account but the transfer isn't going through, it could be because: You haven't set up a PayPal Cash or PayPal Cash Plus account. There is a limitation placed on your account.

If you need actual funds in that account you could use Send Money from another sandbox account and pay the account you want to fund.

You really don't need funds in the account to test payments, though. As long as the account is verified and confirmed it'll fall to "Instant Transfer" and you won't have any problems sending payments using that account.

  1. Login using your developer PayPal account https://developer.paypal.com/
  2. Go to 'My Account' on the top right section of the page.
  3. Go to Accounts under Sandbox.
  4. See your sandbox account and click on the Clone link.
  5. Fill the details and mention the amount you want to have and click on Create.

This is helpful in case if the amount in the existing sandbox account is exhausted.

Don't go to sandbox, go to developer.paypal.com Log in with your real paypal account (not sandbox). Go to Sandbox - > Accounts on the left. Click in the button "Create account" You will be able to add any amount you want.
