Can I split a payment between gift card and credit/debit card?

I have received a £30 giftcard, which is a preloaded Mastercard charge card. I want to apply it to buy an item for £37.50. The on-line retailer is unable to split the payment. Can I pay with PayPal and charge £30 to the gift card and the rest to a different payment method?

Hello @VaughanTD,

 

Welcome to PayPal Community Forum and thank you for posting!

 

I understand that you would like to make the payment using 2 different payment method. It might be possible to split a purchase between a gift card from the store and a second form of payment. Most online retailers don't allow shoppers to simply split payments between cards when checking out. They may allow to use a gift card balance and another payment method, but otherwise require a single payment method. You need to confirm at the checkout page and you can confirm the same by checking store policies.

 

Hope this helps you!

 

Warm Regards,

Shradha
