Hi @Jaroslav!
Thank you for joining the PayPal Community! I apologize that no one in the Community responded to your question, but I will do my best to help. It sounds as though when you make online purchases, you are being directed to add a card to PayPal. There are a couple of things that can cause this. Many times we ask for a card to help us verify the account owner's identity. Sometimes we may need to ask for more information to do this, but we always start with a card or a bank account depending on the country.
The other possibility is there are many services that require a card be active on PayPal. Just a few examples are PlayStation, Xbox, Apple, and Netflix. This is due to how they process and receive payments, an instant payment method like a card be active on PayPal at all times.
I hope this helps, and you are more than welcome to give us a call. To do this, please follow the Help & Contact link at the bottom of the page, or you can also reach us on Facebook or at @AskPayPal on Twitter.

So I don't have an active card right now but I have enough funds on my paypal, and I need to buy an item in a game. Is there anyway to use my funds on paypal without linking a card/bank account?
