GoDaddy - Unable to pay via PayPal?

    Hey guys,

    I was planning to purchase a few domains from GoDaddy.com, however, for some reason why i attempt to make a PayPal payment it always asks me (when logged in) to add a Credit Card to my account, why ? I have already got my account vertified via letter in the mail and my account already has funds within the account? So why would i need to add a credit card before i can continue to make a final payment?

    Thanks.

    Daniel

    Use your debit card to pay for the domain then. They accept debit.

    Ah, I'm Verified Business Member at PayPal, so now I see why they never asked me for my credit card :)

    Yes, both DomainSite and DynaDot accept any PayPal account and both are cheaper than GoDaddy ;)

    Ask godaddy regarding this problem. I also had similar problem 1 month past. They resolved the issue within 24 hrs. I bought 35 domains from them.
