# Connecting a bank account to your PayPal

After you receive your reward, it'll be available to you in your PayPal account. If you want to transfer it to your bank account, however, you'll have to add your bank to your PayPal account. To do so, follow these steps:

1. Log into your PayPal account.
2. Click on the **L\*\*\*\*ink a card or bank button** on the bottom-right corner of your screen.
3. Choose between **Link a debit or credit card** and **Link a bank account**. For the purposes of this tutorial, choose **Link a bank account**.
4. Choose your bank.
5. Choose to enter your account number manually or link your bank directly by logging in with your bank's username and password.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://participanthelp.dscout.com/getting-paid/getting-paid-via-paypal/connecting-a-bank-account-to-your-paypal.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
