I have my settings to use my PayPal balance as preferred method first. Last week I was able to use that method on wish.com, however, today it does gives the option to pay with paypal but not my PayPal balance, this also happen 2 days ago. It only allows me to select one of my saved cards. I do have enough money available, It isn't even showing as an option to use PayPal balance like before. Can someone help me. Thank you in advance

I wasn't even offered the opportunity to use PayPal! And was charged double from Wish's checkout which I didn't agree to. They added and item, and offered me to "pay half now, half in 30 days?", "Great!', was approved through checkout. Now I can shop some more.. Once again, offered "pay half now, half in 30 days?", "Sure! I'll have more funds on the 1st!". Approved through checkout. Next day, Wish charged me $40+ more than they agreed, and countless emails to them hasn't helped! The app says you can cancel before item is shipped, but further investigation found that you have 8 hours to cancel!? I guess in case you buy too much stuff while drinking, on ambien, you fall asleep and it's too late by the time your awake. But app said otherwise. Not a "customer friendly" business. They even asked, when disputing, if I used PayPal? I WISH I could have used PayPal for purchasing! Wasn't offered the opportunity. Love to know how to use, as well! If using Wish again. Very sad, as I gave great reviews, pics for cheap/free items, and was thanked. Now it's been 10 days, no response from them.. Take screenshots of every offer, transaction offered, accepted, as necessary. You made need them. Sounds like they take PayPal, but I couldn't find it through the app. Much Thanks, if anyone knows/finds a way to use PayPal with Wish!

So I had PayPal funds I also wanted to use instead of a card, but it wasn’t an option. So while I was going to pay with the card, a pop up appeared and asked me to give permission to wish to to make a payment from my credit card and after that it said, if the card had unavailable funds the Payment would be taken off of my PayPal balance. So before I completed the payment I realized I had a pre paid visa gift card in my PayPal wallet with no funds on it, so I figured I’d make that my source of payment for the purchase to see if it would automatically use my PayPal balance, well it worked. The card had no funds on it so the purchase was paid for with my PayPal balance. So maybe if u have a pre paid credit or gift card with no funds on it you could add it to your wallet and use your PayPal balance this way or maybe even an expired credit card would do the trick. It’s ridiculous that you just can chose it as a payment option in the first place but this worked for me.
