Title: Random Question
Post by: babyturtles23 on August 26, 2014, 07:40:36 pm
If I have money in my PayPal account, but it is not linked to a bank account would I still be able to purchase something online through PayPal?

Yes, though you do have to link it to a credit card at the very least, cause if your money runs out then your purchase (or the remainder) will be charged to the card.

Well I would definatley think that you could, as long as you have enough in your account to cover your purchase

Yes, you can and if paypal has been generous to you and given you a Paypal Credit line (used to be call Bill Me Later) then sometimes it just goes there.  But as long as you have money on you account it will take it from there, and charged the difference to the Credit Card you have on record.

I think there is a paypal card you can get and use it like a debt card.  I have had mine linked to my bank account for a long time and never had a problem.  I just transfer the money from paypal to my bank.  I don't pay thru my pay pal account.  I am not sure but I think some sites you can pay straight from your paypal account.

Yes you can purchase online with PayPal. Only the sites that accept it. Which these days, many sites do.
