Payment

Question

Can I select my payment choice when using PayPal?

If you mean that when you check out of eBay and select PayPal, you are not able to choose a specific payment method in your PayPal wallet but one is automatically selected for you, in that case go to your eBay Payments page in your eBay account and delete the entry for PayPal that appears there.

The next time you check out on eBay and choose PayPal, you should be sent to your PayPal wallet page and given a chance to pick a specific payment method.

You can edit your payment source for automatic payments with PayPal at paypal.com: Settings (gear icon at top right): Payments: Automatic Payments. Scroll down the left column (clicking to display more entries as necessary when you get to the bottom) to find the eBay one, click it, and choose your source in the main column.

If you want to go through that to change it for different transactions, my guess would be that the one in place when you pre-authorize the transaction (place the bid or make the offer) is the one that will be used even if you change it at paypal.com afterwards, but I'm not sure.

Yes. When you are in your Paypal account you can also specify one method as your default. Some methods cannot be selected if you are asked to specify an auto pay method when placing a bid or making a best offer. In those cases, before the auto pay takes place, you have 1 hour in which to manually go to ebay Checkout to select Paypal and then select your method.
