Its not offered on every site and on ebay its not offered on every transaction.

 

You can only use it when it is offered.

 

Personally I wouldn't bother with it, you have more protection funding your paypal payment with a credit card.

Pay After Delivery (PAD) is a method of payment that PayPal is offering to customers, where you don’t pay for your purchase until after you’ve received it.

 

PayPal pays the seller immediately, so they can send you the item straight away, but we won't debit the money from your bank account until 14 days after the purchase. This gives you time to receive the item and check that it’s up to standard.

 

Even if you're eligible for PAD, it will only be offered for certain purchases. When it’s available you’ll see the option on the 'Review Your Information' page during checkout. There’s no charge for making a PAD payment and you’re covered by our Buyer Protection, even after we’ve debited the money.

 

You need a confirmed bank account to be considered eligible for PAD.

 

After you’ve made a Pay After Delivery payment, it automatically becomes the default way to pay when it’s available. You can switch it off at any point.  

 

Here’s how:

 

  1. Go to www.paypal.com/ukand log in to your PayPal account.
  2. Click Profilenear the top of the page.
  3. On the left, click My money.
  4. Beside ‘Bank accounts’, click Update.
  5. Under 'Paying after delivery is my preferred way to pay', click Turn this option off.

If you have not yet been offered it and you would like it, follow this link below to enroll:

 

 
Hope this helps 🙂
