    Is there a simple way to send money to someone using paypal, paying with your credit card?

    Would you have to make them create a 'buy now' button or something?

    There is a couple of different ways to do this with PayPal. First, the sender can send money to another party by simply going into the senders PayPal account and select the "Send Money" tab at top of page. Fill in the information. If recipient is family in the US, you can send the money free by selecting Personal tab at the bottom. Otherwise, select Purchase and click continue. Sometimes you cannot use anything except your bank for paying.

    Hi,

    It´s always better and cheaper to pay using your PayPal account or linked bank account funds, but if you must the following fees will aply:
    2.9% + $0.30 USD (you can choose who pays this fee, sender or payee).

    For more information, take a look at at the Help Section of their site.

    Best regards.

    yes you can send money to someone using paypal, paying with your credit card directly.
    but you can also add funds to your paypal account first, and then send money using your PayPal account funds
