Like a credit card, you can use PayPal Buyer Credit as a funding option when sending money to any PayPal Premier or Business account. (If the recipient does not have a Business or Premier PayPal account, the recipient will be prompted to register or upgrade to a Business or Premier PayPal account.)

PayPal Buyer Credit can't be used in the following circumstances:

• For cash advance transactions
• To recover a negative PayPal balance
• On merchant sites that do not accept PayPal Buyer Credit
