Thread Title is self-explanatory. Follow up, is Paypal accepting all the financial risk? Don’t worry, I value my credit rating and pay all my bills. 😉 ---

yes they do but they don’t know the specific credit account number …and yes because it works like normal credit once it processes the sellers paid and paypal expects you to pay them… ---

Thank you. It’s something I’d wondered about. Whether the seller was notified it was a credit sale. The no interest, if paid in six months is very convenient. I’ve bought a few things (never more than one at a time) and paid it off. It’s a better deal than using a CC that requires payment in 30 days (to avoid interest).
