Yes. Money you have stored in the PayPal account is used first, then they’ll automatically dip into your card for the rest.

Answer by bubble s
it works just like your bank account.

you can pay for things and the money goes out of paypal and then out of the card.

CHECK YOUR CREDIT CARD COMPANY AS THEY MIGHT CLASS PAYPAL AS A CASH WITHDRAWAL AND CHARGE YOU.

when your paypal account has a lot of money you can transfer it onto the card just like a back account

Yes, any order from a site is automatically charge to your credit card if you do not have credit or balance at paypal.
