You can pay with PayPal using a credit card without linking it to your PayPal account by utilizing PayPal's guest checkout option. This allows you to enter your credit card details directly during the payment process, without needing to add it to your PayPal account beforehand.Here's how:
- Start the Payment: When you reach the PayPal payment page, you will see the option to "Pay with a credit or debit card" or a similar option.
- Enter Credit Card Details: You'll be prompted to enter your credit card information, including the card number, expiration date, security code, and billing address.
- Confirm and Complete: Review the details and confirm the payment.
Important Notes:
-
Guest Checkout:This method utilizes PayPal's guest checkout feature, allowing you to pay without needing a PayPal account or linking a credit card.
-
Not Available Everywhere:Guest checkout might not be available for all types of payments or with all merchants.
-
Account Creation (Optional):You may have the option to create a PayPal account during the guest checkout process, but it's not required.
