The PayPal app caters to millions of individuals and businesses. Receiving and making payments to almost anywhere in the world is just a tap away, negating the need for any paper transaction.
PayPal Cash essentially lets physical cash to make its way to a user's PayPal account without the user even visiting the bank. The desired amount can be directly dumped into a user's PayPal wallet.

PayPal Cash users in the United States now have the ease of visiting 28,000 retail store locations to top-up their Paypal account.
How It Works
Though using one's credit card for topping up PayPal Cash is a viable option, in case one has some cash in hand, heading over to the physical location would be a convenient alternative.
It is pretty easy to top-up the account and one can do so by taking the cash to a 7-Eleven store. One can use the iOS or Android version of the PayPal app to generate the barcode, which can be then given to the cashier for scanning.
After the cashier scans the code, simply pay in cash and the money is instantly credited to the PayPal account.
However, one must have a credit or debit card linked to the PayPal account, which is also linked to the user's bank account.
Any Limits?
Yes. Users of PayPal Cash can only deposit up to $500 a day and the amount cannot exceed $4,000 per month. Moreover, users are charged a service fee of $3.95 for each transaction made.
The cash limit has been put in place to counter any money laundering practices.
Is The Updated PayPal App Available?
The Google Play Store already has the updated PayPal app available for download for the Android users. The changelog has been updated to reflect the inclusion of 7-Eleven.
"PayPal Cash is now available at 7-Eleven! Use it to add cash to your PayPal balance at stores across the US. Go to your balance and tap Add Money to get started," notes the changelog.
The iOS app for PayPal is yet to be updated and currently does not reflect the change.
