Spending from where?

I have a PayPal card and my PayPal account is linked to my checking account. My PayPal balance is $2 but I have money in my checking account. If I use my PayPal card, will it also withdraw funds from my checking account since they are linked?

Hi @Talleyw18!

 

Great question, and it depends on the card. If you have the PayPal Cash MasterCard, then it will only pay from the PayPal account balance only. If you have the PayPal Business Debit MasterCard, then you have the option to set a bank account as a back up payment method if the PayPal balance is zero. 

 

I hope this helps and thank you for joining the Community!
