For paypal, texting is even the only 2FA option for non-US citizens. Baffling.

  You can use a symantec hardware token. Paypal’s ceo is head of symantec’s board. Paypal must use symantec software wherever it is available, and their mfa is no exception. This is still baffling as you say though, because symantecs mfa system does allow for other mechanisms.

    Paypal's Symantec HW token can be replaced with a TOTP app.

    I can't. It only seems to be available for US citizens.
