Buying from eBay

[Youranus]

Can I bid for an item on EBay even though I have no funds in my PayPal account? I've been a member for over 10 years, but my PayPal account is unfortunately not linked to my bank account. I sell twice a year and use the funds I've made to make purchases. Haven't sold anything recently though and would love to bid on an item that ends on Friday. Can I enter a bid and pay with my debit card should I become the winning bidder? Thanks in advance.

Yes! This is the only way I have ever bought anything on eBay.

Yes you can pay with a credit or debit card

Yes, I buy stuff for work all the time, and we don't even have a Paypal account. Just pay by credit card.

Thanks everyone. Wasn't sure if my previous paypal purchases would affect my ability to use a debit card.

You can pay by card but i dont think your protected by the buyer refund guarantee thing if you dont use your paypal account. Im not 100% on this though

If you link your debit card to your PayPal account they will debit any money automatically from your card. You pay on the card but get all the protection from PayPal.
