One feature I am very excited about is being able to freeze and unfreeze the card from the app!. One feature I am devastated to lose is Mint.
The new PayPal Mastercard interface is here. Right inside the Paypal app. You are able to freeze and unfreeze the physical card right inside the app but I don't see where you can request a CLI! I would hate to have to speak to a human to explain why I need one every 6 months when I don't spend much on it...

To reestablish, it was much easier than I feared, because the FI I wanted was already in the option menu presented. I am guessing that's because it's has previously been added to Paypal rather than remembered somehow from the Sync interface.
Don't remember the previous options but I was only offered "on due date" which is what I use anyway
The website says they offer email notifications for transactions. It worked one time and hasn't worked since for me. If I don't use PayPal to make the transaction, there's no notification. Not really a huge deal to me but it may matter to someone else.
Ahh i was wondering why I couldnt access the synchrony website with my new Paypal card... so because of this where is the luv button located since everything is in the Paypal app now
@Credit12Fico did u ever figure out where the luv button is located

I only checked the mobile app and didn't see it. Unable to check the desktop site currently. Maybe it's hidden there.

Yes. This upgrade is designed to enhance your PayPal Cashback Mastercard® and PayPal Cashback World Mastercard® experience by making your account management seamless.
Account improvements:
- You'll be able to manage your PayPal Cashback Mastercard account preferences right from the PayPal app.
- You'll be able to log in to your PayPal Cashback Mastercard account directly through PayPal — you will no longer be redirected to Synchrony Bank.
Payments and rewards improvements:
- When making a payment using your PayPal balance, your balance will immediately reflect the outgoing payment amount.
- You can see your cash back rewards grow in real time.
So now that the updates have been done... mine looks the same? I don't see any differences
