How do I make my PayPal Cashback Mastercard, eBay Extras Mastercard, PayPal Extras Mastercard, PayPal Credit, or PayPal Smart Connect my preferred payment source?

Here's how to change your preferred payment method:

  1. Click Wallet.
  2. Click the preferred payment method.
  3. Click Set as preferred.

The preferred payment method will apply when you check out with PayPal at merchants and when you send payments for items and services from your PayPal account. You can change this setting anytime.

The preferred payment method will affect existing automatic payments if you haven’t assigned a specific way to pay for those automatic payments. Please review them if you want to adjust the payment method.
