To transfer and do your business.

?, i just confirmed my account through paypal and it says

Make instant payments

Your bank account is now the default payment method and allows you to make instant PayPal payments. Please ensure that there are sufficient funds in your bank account before you send a payment with PayPal.

More funding options

If you would like to use an alternative method (e.g. Debit, Credit card, PayPal Balance), click more funding options on PayPal’s payment pages.

for online purchases do i need the paypal balance thingy or can i just use my checking account balance???

You can use your checking account balance

checking account balance. but it`s like an echeck and usually takes at least 4 days to clear.

you have a debit card?? if so i`d use that and set it to default its instant when you pay no waiting to clear

ok thank you, and i dont need to "transfer" money from my checking account to my paypal account?

 

[bsean63 10+ year member]

no i dont have a debit card yet im in the process, the bank calls it an atm check card is that the same as a debit?

no, my paypal, when it has a balance of $0 or I make a purchase that exceeds my paypal balance, goes into my primary funds source which is my debit card, and my secondary is my checking acct which is linked to my debit card lol, so just do a "send money" and the $ will come from whatever source you have chosen.

It will do it itself, it just takes a few days.

You can transfer ahead of time so the money will already be in there for you to make an instant payment if you choose to.

atm check card sounds like a debit card? but it probably only works at an atm and not point of sale purchases?

no the lady i talked to said she wouldnt use it for online purchases because i could be a victim to id theft but it can be used to purchase things

Identity theft is always a possibility no matter how you do it. What I do is use a checking account that I never have a lot of money in so if someone gets it I'm not out much.
