Request for password before each transaction

I used to be asked for my Paypal password with each transaction. Now I never get asked for it; the payment goes straight through. How can I get it back to the earlier setting? I liked the security of having to give my password each time. Many thanks.

Hi girlonabus and welcome, 

 

It sounds like you may have opted into what we call "one click".  

 

The One Click checkout uses a 'Log in with PayPal' feature to remember your details for certain websites, such as eBay. This allows you to pay more quickly for your purchases without needing to log in to your PayPal account.

To switch this feature off:

  1. Go to www.paypal.com/uk and log in to your account.
  2. Click the Settings icon near the top of the page.
  3. Click Security.
  4. Next to 'Log In with PayPal', click Edit.
  5. Tick the checkbox next to the relevant website(s).
  6. Click Remove.

I hope this helps, 

Paula
