I have the Paypal prepaid MasterCard which gives me an assigned account number (routing and account #). I’m able to set up direct deposits with this number. My question is, can I also make payments with this number? I attempted to pay my car pmt (which only accepts account/routing numbers for payments), and it kept getting declined.

Hi @TArch876,
The account and routing number issued to you is not a savings or checking account and should only be used for employer and government direct deposits.
If you're interested, PayPal also offers the Cash debit card. This card also has direct deposit and the card is directly linked to your PayPal account so there are no transfers necessary. There is no cost and no monthly fee. I'll link details.
