How to Make a Payment

       So, here is the situation.  I don't want PayPal to have access to my bank account so I set it up to make payments via my credit card.  Now I recently sold and item and received money into my PayPal account.  I can't transfer it to a bank account because I don't want to set one up.  Also, I don't want to pay more fees for having a check sent to me.  So, I have this balance sitting in my account. 

      My question is, the next time I purchase something online, can I use the balance that I have in my account to pay for it, or will PayPal only let me pay via Credit Card?

 

Thanks,

Matt

You can use you balance on your Paypal account to purchase an item. You use both you paypal balance and your Credit card on the same purchase while using paypal too.

 

If you have $50 on your paypal balance and there is an item you want to purchase that is worth $57, you can use paypal it will use the $50 balance and take the $7 out of you credit card. These are one of the reason why I love using paypal.
