Good day @J4R.

 

We appreciate you contacting us.

 

Sure, you can use our router number to link a credit card and cheque, but not an account.

 

Note that this is not a "one and done" approach. Receiving an OTP to finish attaching your card takes longer than a day.

 

If you tried to follow these instructions and were successful in linking your card, please let us know.

 

Your suggestions are much valued.

 

Sincerely,

Team Standard Bank

I have now confirmed the Debit Card (The Credit Card is still outstanding) by going onto PayPal and selecting the relevant cards (Do this on computer not phone app).

None of the links provided by @FanaM1  to follow steps currently work.

 

I have tried to add a bank account but PayPal says US accounts only. Thus, the routing number provided does not work and it says contact PayPal after I also entered the account number.

 

I have however, linked both my SB Debit and Credit cards.

 

@FanaM1  what's next?
