Hi! I have a paypal account in which i did add my bank but did not confirm it yet and paypal did already sent small deposits to my account which i have to enter on paypal to confirm it. Anyways my question is in some days i will recieve an amount of about $350 into my paypal and i have to make a payment of $300 on some online shop, so will i get to pay the amount directly from my paypal account or i have to again add a Credit/debit car to make the transaction? please help me out.

You say you will receive $350 and then you will spend $300 for online shopping. But you have not to shop online unless there is some necessity. Spending from paypal account or using some credit or debit card always depends on Paypal policy for different countries. You have to link your credit card with paypal, but this is not a good option because buying and selling specify different rates, and you may pay much more than you make with it.

That is amazing that you are going to receive such a huge money in your Paypal account so soon, if there is some genuine way you can share it. Now the second point is that it depends on the country of your residence because Paypal have different rules for different countries. Paypal allows all type of transactions for the US residents but for the people like me from India we can only get paid through Paypal and the money gets transferred automatically to our Indian bank account but we can not use the money in the Paypal account for online purchases and also we can not fund our Paypal account from here. So find the rules which are for your country and you will get the answers. Thanks.

I am glad to meet you. I am interested in such business also but I am not able to do it. If you have to get the money then Paypal will stop that because incoming is allowed but outgoing is not allowed for us.

I found no problem transferring my PayPal money to another account. I have also heard my brother talked about his business in e-bay in which he receives payment via PayPal and also do payments as well via PayPal, so I think it's okay. However, I have just recently found out that in India, PayPal accounts that are linked to a bank account automatically transfers any cash in the account to the bank account so there will be no way to use PayPal as a method of payment. I am not sure with other countries as well.

I have no issue in transferring my money to the bank account but the thing is I cannot add my debit card, So my question is without transferring the money to the bank that is while it is still in paypal do i need to add the debit card to make the transaction.

Well, the question is whether you have sufficient fund in your paypal account right now to make that online shop payment? Otherwise, you might have to transfer the money either from your bank account or other source to your paypal account to make it sufficient to make that payment. I hope that will help you out a little. The same process goes on every transaction.

Haven't tried online shopping . I prefer more to shop personally in malls. Shopping is one way of unwinding.
