Can I set up my credit card as the default method for purchases?

Ok, so I've read some posts regarding this question...people are pretty brutal. Sorry, PayPal employees. 😞 I just want to know if I can use my credit card as the default payment method for purchases through PayPal. If not, it's OK. I can totally handle clicking a few buttons to change my payment method. However, I would like to take advantage of the PayPal One Touch feature. My fear is that the purchase will be paid through my default payment method (bank account) without asking me to switch payment methods (will want it to be my credit card). Is this the case? If so, I just won't be able to use One Touch at this time. No biggie. 🙂 Please advise. Thank you!

If you have a bank account linked then it will always be the default funding source UNLESS you have funds in your paypal account balance.

 

I too like to fund my paypal payments via a card for extra security but always select ''change'' during the payment process as you can't set it as a default if you have a bank account linked.
