Is there a faster way to pay w/o using paypal. I mean I have paypal it's just that I don't have any money on it and it would take at least a week to put money on it. Is there a faster way?!!

EDIT: If i buy with paypal w/o money on it what happens? I have my debitcard and bank linked to it. I am also from USA so not sure how the euro to dollar will work.

hi andy8, if you've registered your card and bank account and linked these to your paypal account then paypal will deduct the purchase price from your linked card or bank account (paypal will prompt you for your payment preference). When you link your bank account, it automatically becomes the default way you pay when your PayPal account balance isn't enough to cover a payment. If your paypal account balance does not have funds and it goes to default way then the payment becomes an eCheck, and like a regular check it takes about a week to clear at the recipient side.

If you don't want to wait a week then do not pay with the linked bank account, you can choose to pay with the linked debit card when you checkout. Just make sure that the debit card has the funds so that the purchase amount will readily be deducted from your card.
