    Do you still need a credit card to register to paypal?

    I could with my bank account. Is this region-dependent?

    I'm pretty sure a virtual card will not work for verification, but may work for making payments through paypal.

    If you are under-age, I wouldn't recommend doing it, but your username contains '94' is in birth year, are you 18 yet?
    You don't need a credit card to do transactions via PayPal but certain limits may be applied to your account.

    I recommend using Skrill (Moneybookers) though, they charge less fees for personal accounts and don't have the requirement of a confirmed credit card to get your account into a 'standard' state.
