[solved] I can't pay because paypal asks to register card

[sukolyn]

hi,

I'm shopping on discount.com, but I can't pay because Paypal asks to register a card.

more or less the message is : To go on, register a card, or choose a payment mode to pay later.

note that I have enough money in my wallet, which is defined to be the prefered payment mode.

I don't have credit card (if I had one, why would I need to register it?), so I can't register.

Firstly are the funds in your balance in the correct currency? Only paypal only auto converts for you from a card or bank and not a balance you would have to do that yourself if needed.

Secondly you can use your balance for a while but at some point paypal will tell you to add a card to act as a back up funding source and to 'verify' your paypal account.

thank you for replying.

1- discount.com prices are in €uros, like the money at my payPal account.

2- I have no card. What can I do ?

1. Good

2. Get one?

2- there is no way for me to get a card.

@sukolyn 

ok

[sukolyn]

does that mean that I won't be able to use payPal ?

I removed some automatic authorizations of payment, in parameters,

refreshed payment page, and payment from balance appeared.
