Last Recorded Benefits

Confirm availability and enrollment requirements with the issuer.

  • Was issued by WebBank with virtual card access inside the PayPal business dashboard
  • 2% flat with no caps put it in the top tier of no-fee business cards

Why it earns its spot

  • +Uncapped 2% flat was genuinely best in class for a no-fee business card
  • +Instant virtual card inside PayPal at approval

Where it costs you

  • PayPal closed every account on September 23, 2024 with roughly one week of notice
  • Credit limits were slashed to near the current balance immediately, hurting utilization
  • The shutdown fits a PayPal pattern of abrupt product exits

The Compound Verdict

A cautionary tale in fintech credit. The card itself was excellent, then PayPal discontinued it in September 2024, cut limits overnight, and gave cardholders a week before accounts stopped working. Remember this one when a too-good fintech rate asks for your business spend.
