I don't have a bank account. Can I use PayPal instead?

For Square Register use/credit card processing:

Square requires a transactional bank account that allows for deposits and withdrawals (in case of refunds or chargebacks). Prepaid cards or online-only accounts, like PayPal, aren’t supported.

Is there are any other option available to get my fund?

I tried all of bank account that I have... but none of it working and I can not make a new account. But I have funds on the account. What should I do?

Do you have an account at a physical bank? That's really what you need. If you do, have you spoken to the bank? An average bank with a regular checking account shouldn't have a problem.

At this time Square requires a transactional bank account or a Square Banking account. This is to be able to perform refunds, transfers and to cover in the case of any dispute or chargeback.
