I have a debit card. I just use it for direct deposit. its no from a bank or anything. its called money center.. from walmart. I work at walmart and i just signed up for the card for direct deposit. but i can use it as a debit card... anyways, when i entered the cards info on paypal to make an account, at the end, it said that i signed up for a credit card. i just made an ebay purchase and again, i said credit card. whats going on? Am i going the wrong way? My card clearly says debit. So will i owe any money?

Debit cards will usually be read by vendors as a credit card.  It works just like a credit card except it deducts from the current balance instead.  You can verify it by checking your card statements.
