How do I set a card as a preferred payment method?

Here’s how to set a card as a preferred payment method:

  1. Go to your Wallet.
  2. Click the card you'd like to use as your preferred payment method.
  3. Click Set as preferred.

Please note that you need to add a payment method (such as a card) to your PayPal account before you can select it as a preferred way to pay.

Changing your preferred payment method won’t affect automatic payments. You can update your payment preference directly on the automatic payment.
