Can you do payments with PayPal

Yes, you can do payments with PayPal at millions of online stores and at selected physical locations by choosing the PayPal option at checkout.

Online, you pick PayPal when checking out and pay from a funding source stored in your account. In stores, PayPal users in the US can pay with a PayPal Debit Card or PayPal Cashback Mastercard. You can also pay another person by entering their email address or by using PayPal.Me.

  • PayPal balance: Pay with money already held in your PayPal account.
  • Bank account: Link a bank account so funds are drawn from it when you make a purchase.
  • Credit or debit card: Add a major card such as Visa, Mastercard, Discover or American Express to your PayPal account.
  • Pay later: Split the cost with options such as Pay in 4 or monthly installments where they are offered.

For a quick PayPal overview of the process, the key idea is that you first sign up and link at least one payment method, and every purchase then draws on that method.

  1. Find the button: Look for the PayPal button on the checkout page of the online store.
  2. Log in: Click the button and sign in to your PayPal account.
  3. Pick a funding source: Choose your balance, a linked bank account or a card to pay with.
  4. Complete the payment: Review the order details and confirm the transaction.
