How Do You Pay Directly with your Paypal Account Balance

Hello Community,

 

Is it possible to pay for things directly from the balance I already have on my Paypal account? I have plenty of money in my account and I want to pay for something online, but it always just charges my bank Card, circumventing the balance. Is there some setting I have to tweak to get it to take from my balance instead?

the cutrrent available amount is $282.69 and I want to pay an invoice estimated $250


but at the payment page, there is only Card option, even though that I set my payment preference  is PayPal..!

Hello @Kurdovan

 

Welcome to the PayPal Community! I'm sorry to hear you're running into issues paying with your balance. Have you made sure the amount your paying and your PayPal balance are in the same currency? If the amount your paying is in one currency, your balance is in another, and your card is in another, you may run into issues making that purchase. I'd recommend making sure your card's currency and PayPal balance are in the same currency, then trying to make the payment. If you're still running into issues after that, I'd recommend reaching out to our Customer Support teams for further assistance. They can be reached by clicking "Contact" at the bottom of any PayPal page.

 

Good luck!
