Hey guys! Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I thought I'd give it a shot.

For those of you who use Paypal, I'm trying to buy some something online, and there's a Paypal payment option. The only problem is, I want to pay using a credit card that is linked to my Paypal and when I'm in the payment window, I don't see that as an option. I did some research and apparently if your paypal balance can pay off the order, you can't use debit/credit as an option anymore (although eCheque was available). Do I need to do anything to verify the credit card with my Paypal?

I guess this is something I should take up with Paypal, but if anyone knows for sure here, that would be great!

Thanks!

Maybe in Technology?

From what my understanding is of using Paypal, is that when you signed up originally for your paypal account, you linked that paypal account to a specific debit/credit card in the beginning. So then when you go on Ebay or an internet site that accepts paypal and choose that paying method, it will automatically use that card that you registered your paypal account with, and take it out of the account that relates to that card.

My paypal account is attached to my debit card. If i use paypal, it will automatically take from my debit card, which in turn takes it from a specific account i have set up with that card.

You might not see that credit card option, because it automatically was linked when you set up your account. I think there might be an option to change which card you use, etc.

Hope that helps?

Try paying for that online purchase via paypal, and maybe check up on what card you have it linked to

And you should be able to change your source to your credit card, but I don't know exactly how, but you should be able to..
