Windows 10: PayPal & Microsoft store

What's the point of having PayPal as an option, if you still need a credit/debit card? I have $200 on my paypal but it won't let me use my paypal "wallet" to buy a game on MS store. Seems sort of redundant. lol

• Sign in to your
  Payment options.
• Select Add payment option.

Microsoft Support Paypal payment

Hi Fantanafest,

Thank you for being a part of Windows 10.

Before we proceed, I need more information to help you better.

• Did you purchase any applications or games from the Windows Store?
• Can you provide us the screen shot of the notification?
• What are the “some issues” you are referring to?

The Paypal payment notification might occur if you have purchased any applications or games from the Windows Store. If there is a
more details option on the Paypal payment notification then, I suggest you to click on it and check.

Hope the above information helps. Reply with necessary information and the result to help you further.

Ways to Pay in Paypal

I was trying to buy the app Maps Pro in the Microsoft Store and was linking my Paypal Account. Why is my actual Paypal Account which has some money in it not listed in "Choose Way to Pay" option. Only my Bank Account and Credit card are listed as ways
to pay?
