    From my experience and assuming you are from india, debit cards with a VISA logo are not accepted by Paypal. :)

    If the state bank of travancore is from India then you most definitely cannot use the debit card. Only an International Credit Card would be supposed.

    The card is International Debit Card and not Credit Card. So PayPal (India) only accepts Credit Card to verify accounts. So get a Credit Card or make an account with your parents detail in it and use their credit card to verify that account and use it.

    Its more of an Issue with Indian Banks than Paypal. They dont allow Debit Cards to be used for online transactions.
