Ok, I guess I will show off my stupidity now. I have money in my paypal waiting for me that I have earned on mylot. But how do I get my hands on it? How do I use the money? Do I just have to use it online? It is not much money as I don't use this site for a money maker but after the 15th I will have a couple of payouts sitting there.

you can withdraw your money from paypal and have it sent to your bank, you gave your bank account when you signed up for paypal, that was the reason for doing that.

I have transferred money from my paypal account to my bank account. It was easy once I verified my account. It takes a few days before it is in your bank account though.

Ok, I will try this again. It didn't go through the first time. Thank you for the information. I just brought up my paypal account and looked over it a little bit and will check into it more later. I usually just get on there to pay my monthly credit card payment. Have a wonderful day.

Just log in to paypal, and there is a tab to request withdrawal, it takes 3 - 4 days for it to be transferred on to your bank card.

Yes, when you got your paypal account, if you linked it to a bank account, that is where it will be deposited.

OH ok, thank you Tami for that info. When you say bank card though, is that the same thing I would do for them to put it into my bank account?

Ok, thank you for that info. Write me sometimes and let me know what's going on with you and what type of injury you have that is keeping you from working. Have a good one and take care.

Thank you so much for the information weemam. I am not in any rush to get the money but thought while it is on my mind I would find out how to get my hands on it. hahaha Would be nice to let it build up and wait until around Christmas time to get it and use it. Have a great day.

Paper check? What is that? hahaha Just joking, it seems like so much is done electronically now days. I would rather it just be deposited in my account and not have to mess with paper hassle.

Greetings, I hope you are having a great time and a good day here in my lot my dear friend. I guess your curiosity is already answered by some of our fellow my lotters. I am wondering what your minimum payout is, because it seems that you have already posted thousands here. Hope you could also help me because I am quite aware that I will be reaching my minimum payout here soon. Since I am a beginner on earning money online, I would really love to listen and read some of your tips. Thanks a lot and have a great time and enjoy your stay here always as well. ^_^

I have not posted many at all compared to others on here. This is my first time to do anything on the computer to make money but I find that I am not good at starting interesting discussions so I mainly just respond to others discussions. Have a great weekend. Welcome to MyLot.

I am not a linux user but the idea of donating does sound nice. Too bad we can't set our accounts up on here to donate to certain charity's each month. Thank you for the response.

well, you can do anything you want with your money in paypal... you can transfer it to your bank account... use it to buy stuffs in ebay or other online stores that accept paypal as the method of payment... buy referrals... upgrade your account... and many more... it is entirely up to you...

Oh yes, I have been verified for quite some time on paypal just have never had money go into it like this. It is good the way I have it set up, my grandson has been here some this summer and in the past few days we have used some of it for things for him on the internet and took it out of my paypal account with money I have gotten from mylot. Thanks for the suggestion anyway, oh yes, I am also not big on going to the mall shopping, I hate it really. hahaha

I have never asked for a payment but it is easy. Or you can spend it on line or transfer to a bank or like I do to my debit card. I have used my papal on eBay too. It is not hard and if you have questions you can email or call them.

There are several things you can do, you can use the money to buy somthing on ebay or if you want the cash you have to link a bank account to your paypal account or paypal will send you a check but they charge to send you a check it is free to transfer it to your bank account.

Thank you so much for this info. I think I will pass on the check being sent to me if they charge a fee.

Yeah, you either need a card to link the funds with, or a bank account number. I've put in personal information to paypal, and I've never had a problem with it. So if that's what you're worried about, PayPal is the most trustworthy I've heard. I used to use ebay and paypal, no worries there.

Thank you so much Pitgull. I have an ebay paypal credit card and I do have accounts set up on both ebay and pay pal and since I make payments on my credit card monthly they have my bank info. I guess I need to find out from them how to get the money put in my back account. Have a good day.
