The store locator link provided...not all of those stores accept PayPal in store, correct? This is so misleading. I called a couple of the places listed near me and NO they do not accept PayPal as form of payment in store - FYI

people-the store itself has got to be set up to accept PAYPAL!!!! Not every store of a particular chain is currently set up: for example, the autozone by my house accepts it, but the autozone about 5 miles away does not. just because a store accepts it online(walmart), does not mean that the "actual" store itself which you shop at accepts it(walmart)

You have to have the app on your phone amd locate the store on the app through the search option. Once you do that it will tell you what pin to enter.

Hello All, 

 

I have also encountered this issue, I was at a store that accepts paypal in store otherwise it would not be a method of checking out. once i entered my email address it asked for a pin.....i tried a pin that I would always assign to anything and that did not work. There must be a way to set this pin somewhere and i cannot seem to find it. 

 

can a paypal op with knowledge please assist with a correct answer?

I bought one and its worthless. I cant load the card from my paypal account and i dont think i ever could or will. It seems like a complete scam or practical joke perhaps aimed at frustrating intellegent adults into realizing how aisininely complecated you can make something that was never intended to work. Blown the better half of my day coming to this conclusion.

To set and/or change your pin you must log in to account either desktop or mobile and and go to settings>security>mobile pin.
