So apparently this was a rookie mistake. I recently made a purchase at a small sporting goods store using PayPal credit. I used the general goods function and also used PayPal credit. Long story short I forgot my wallet and with no Apple Pay option they allowed me to pay with PayPal. It came through as a “Cash Advance”. I also have a balance in my “special payment financing” through PP credit and the balance is pretty much interest free until September. How do I pay directly toward the recent “cash advance” purchase to avoid paying the ridiculous interest rate attached to it? When I go to make a payment it doesn’t give me an option and if it’s like the “special financing purchases” it just pays them in date-purchased order. Again rookie here trying to avoid paying the cash advance interest fee without paying of my entire PayPal credit balance.
