Hello, I want to know can I set up the primary payment method from my bank account, which already linked to my paypal account, to my verified credit card that also existing in my paypal account? There is no balance in my paypal account but I want to buy something, thus I need to use the credit card to make purchase

The bank account is always the default funding source unless you have funds in your paypal balance.
But you can click on ''change'' during the payment process and select to pay with any cards you have attached to your paypal account instead.
But you need to do it on a transaction by transaction basis.
Advice is voluntary.
Kudos / Solution appreciated.
