My paypal credit account isnt showing up on websites to use to purchase things at all. I recently just got off of the customer support line too, I have no restrictions or limitations on my account or paypal credit account. How or where do I go from here to purchase things with paypal credit?

Hello @MGrose2018,
Welcome to PayPal Community Forum and thank you for posting!
I am sorry to know that PayPal Credit is not reflecting as payment method during check out. Please be advised that each time you make a payment from your PayPal account it goes through a series of filters to determine how much risk may be involved in that transaction. If the system deems a transaction to be at high risk, then it may limit the funding options that are available or block the payment from going through altogether. It sounds like this is what you may be running into here. This might be the reason why PayPal Credit is not showing up for the purchase.
Regards,
Ayesha

I'm having this issue and I was told there was a "limitation" on my account so someone removed it for me. PayPal says this should fix my issue but we'll see in a couple days since it needs to refresh. You should ask again about the "limitations" because no one told me until I talked to multiple reps.

Some sites don't make it clear that you're setting an "automatic payment" (not necessarily a recurring payment, but a standard payment for that site). Your list of payment accounts available to be selected for "automatic payment" is controlled from within your PayPal account. Check Settings --> Payments --> Automatic Payments --> Manage Payment Methods.

I'm having the exact same issue. My paypal credit is not showing up as a payment option on ANY website. I've called 3 times and they state I have no limitations I have more than enough credit, and my account looks good. Everytime I call they state it's a Paypal credit issue and transfer me, then Paypal Credit says it's a Paypal issue and transfers me back. Then Paypal will leave it at well it's the merchants fault. EVEN THOUGH I have used Paypal credit on that merchants website 3 months ago. I'm lost on what to do at this point.
