How to pay on eBay

2.1 Go to eBay

Checkout after finding something you want to buy on a participating website

The only real difference between shopping online with a credit card and shopping online with PayPal is what you should do when it comes time to make your payment. 

2.2  Select “PayPal” when asked for a payment method (or Pay with PayPal)

When you go to the eBay checkout page, under the “Pay With” section, click the button next to “PayPal.” (NOTE: on some websites, this button may be replaced by a PayPal button.) when you get to the checkout page, click the button next to “PayPal” under the “Pay With” section.  (NOTE: on some websites, this may instead be a button that says “Pay with PayPal”.)

2.3 Enter your PayPal account login information

You’ll be prompted to log into your PayPal account in a separate window or page. Type in the email address linked with your PayPal account in the box labeled “Email.” Then, in the box labeled “Password,” type the password you chose to safeguard your PayPal account. Finally, click “Log In”  to complete the process.

2.4  Choose the PayPal account

From which you’d like to make a withdrawal (if possible)

You’ll see your default payment choice for PayPal appear when you’ve logged into PayPal and authorized it as a payment method for the website you’re on (in this case, eBay). If you want to change the account that PayPal uses to pay for your purchase, click Change (or the arrow icon highlighted below), and then click the button next to the account you want to use (in this case, I have my bank account selected, but I could choose my credit card instead).

PayPal may use any money in your PayPal account balance instead of allowing you to choose which linked account to pay with if you have moved money there (or it may give you a choice anyway).

2.5 Finish your transaction by confirming the rest of it

 All that’s left to do now is double-check the other of your order information after choosing PayPal as your payment method and deciding which (linked) PayPal account will be used to pay for your purchase (shipping options and addresses, rewards and coupons, etc.). Just click “Confirm and Pay” if everything appears good.
