Available credit transfer?

[generalwarrant]

Hello everyone. Does anyone know a way that I can transfer my available credit to my bank so I can purchase an item not connected to PayPal credit?  I can't find any vendor that uses Paypal credit as a means of payment that carries the product I want to purchase.  Thanks.

Paypal credit doesn't allow cash advances unfortunately.

Thanks. I didn't think so, but thought I'd ask.  Too bad. More people might use it if you could transfer it to a cash usable credit.

then use a Paypal credit card.

Hello again. When I signed up for this credit line, the description said there is NO credit card to go with it. Maybe there is another type credit? All I know is I can only use this on ebay, and some other vendors who have Paypal access on their sites online.  There is no way to use it at actual stores as there is no card.  Thanks again.

you are correct,it is just a line of credit for purchases only.

If the vendor accepts PayPal (if they have an online business) then you should be able to fund from your PayPal credit, they don't necessarily have to have the 'Paypal Credit' icon for purchases to be funded from your credit account. Just make sure you choose PayPal Credit as your funding source at checkout.

Hi. Thanks for replying. Unfortunately, the item I am interested in isn't online.  It's a private party item. Hence my question.

Then yes if you are in the U.S you should be able to use it to send to friends or purchases.
