Can you set up Paypal with a Business debit Mastercard to use that rewards card as an automatic backup for funds? I typically link my bank account, and don't use the bank account for *any* direct purchases, for two reasons: 1) it limits my exposure in case of fraud, and 2) Paypal returns 1% cash back to all transactions processed as credit.
As compared to a regular bank, Paypal will credit me the entire amount of a fraudulent transaction *while* it completes its investigation. Regular banks won't credit you back until their investigation is complete, which could be up to 90 days later. On Mon, Oct 26, 2020 at 2:01 PM Adam Hudson <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hey all.
