Let's say I make a purchase on ebay and win a card. If in my PAYPAL account I do not have sufficient funds, but in my banking account I do, will paypal take the funds from my checking account when I click pay now on ebay?

Yes if it is set-up as your primary payment. but you can pay with a CC too, all you have to do is hit other payment method.
and if there is a CC listed you can pay from there. But if you have say 2 bucks in your PP it takes that first and then does your bank next. But it will not let you pay PP balance and the CC for some reason .

Hope this helped

Thank you very much. How do you set it up as your primary payment (assuming bank account?) And can you switch back?

I had to when I set-up my account. How do you fund your PP your bank? if so it is already set-up as the primary. But if you set-up with a CC then that is the primary funding option. look in your account and it should tell you what is the first line of payment.

Ahh I was confused when you said primary. Yes I believe it is set as primary but when you said primary I thought that was the primary way of payment like, i always pay directly from my checking account :?
