Purchases using PayPal

[roddebug]

Programing changes by eBay last year eliminated eBay selecting the Preferred Credit Card in PayPal  used for Purchases. Payments used to allow selecting which credit card to use at eBay. Many of us use multiple credit cards to track different categories of payments.

Preferred programing would either select the PayPal Wallet preferred card or confirm / select which card when completing the link payment to PayPal. The old way worked great & was consistent with how PayPal is designed.

The new "streamlined" method is missing that selection. It's a mess as it stands.

You should be able to select PayPal at checkout.

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 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, including PayPal Credit if the transaction qualifies.

If the seller requires a payment method in advance to place a bid or make an offer, you may have to provide a credit or debit card that can handle a reversible payment hold. In the case of an auction, eBay may allow some time -- on the order of an hour -- after the auction ends to combine auction wins or to choose a different payment method. If another payment method is not specified, eBay will charge the amount to the payment method specified in advance.

   I rather like the streamlined process. I accept or make offer and paid. I don't have to hassle with logging into PayPal etc.

   I only have one PayPal payment method though, not several.
