I want to pay with my credit card rather than my payapl balance. I want to do this so I can get more credit card rewards. Is there a way to do this other than trying to keep my account balance at zero as much as possible?

I know I can withdraw my funds first. It can be a pain when I receive and send several payments in one day.

It's not a pain, its quite quick and easy. just withdrawal to bank and it will empty your balance afterwards and you can use card. No need to wait until the money is in your bank account. that or just use the card merchant checkout and not PayPal checkout.
Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
