How long does it take for a payment via Credit Cards handled by PayPal to show up on my statements?

Hello,

Yesterday, I made a payment via Paypal without an account linked. It was a thing where you'd enter your credit info (and yes, this was the real Paypal not a scam.) and then the merchant would receive the money and whatever. Basically, after I clicked "pay" and accepted the charge via my bank, it just said "Almost done Now finish paying at merchant name" and then nothing happened on the merchants site. I checked my bank account around an hour after and this morning and no money has been taken out of my account. Now I'm just wondering if the moneys gonna be taken out of my account randomly throughout the week?

All helps appreciated.

Hi!

My apologies beforehand for my bad English.
I'm having the same problem here. I just started using PayPal today to get a certain item and when I pressed 'pay', they said that my transaction was complete on both the merchants site and on the official PayPal site. But when I checked my bank account, no money was taken off. My Paypal is linked to my bankaccount and everything is verfied and stuff so I don't know if there is like a techinical issue or something just went wrong with my payment.
