Why can't I use Pay Pal on eBay?

I I was very upset to find and eBay no longer uses Pay Pal as a payment method.   Now, you must use a Credit Card.  Their new " payment management" system stinks.

Really? That must be on ebay.com then because on ebay.uk you can still use paypal.

Hi CaliforniaSure, eBay still accepts PayPal as a payment method.

 

Here is a link from eBay that confirms this: https://www.ebay.com/help/buying/paying-items/paying-paypal?id=4033

The last  3 times I won and auction when I went to pay-----Pay Pal had vanished.   There was a little note by the Pay Pal logo.  It said: " looking for Pay Pal?"   It then told me that eBay had gone to a new payment system.  I could use Credit, Debit or G mail Pay.  They did say they "hoped" to have Pay Pal sometime in the future.  So confusing!!

Hi @CaliforniaSure,

 

That's very strange! Were they all from the same seller? I'm wondering if the seller is directing you to pay through their website, or if you're still in the eBay checkout.
