Money On PayPal / myLot

Philippines

March 14, 2016 4:18pm CST

Finally got the payment from one of my online jobs. I already clicked the withdraw button but when I see that I can withdraw for free if I waited for more, I changed my mind. Maybe keeping the money there is a good idea for the moment. I can take it when I really need it. It's not going to earn too much interest if I keep it in the bank as well anyway. I better just have it for April to pay for my credit card bill by then.

Congrats. I put the money from my paypal onto my paypal debit card. I normally put it in the bank, but I thought I would use the paypal card for things I might want and then I won't have to use my bank card, but then of course, I only have so much to work with, so I have to remember what I have, and not try to spend what isn't there. I put over $100 on my paypal card, so that gives me something for a bit anway.

@cherriefic Yep, that, and other things too. I enjoy making papal money, a lot, as I know that it is money that i can use to get the things I need and want.

It's good to try to keep it in there. I think I've only ever managed to keep it in there long enough for two payments from online work.

Wise decision, l also do keep my PayPal money just there in PayPal in case i need to buy something online and if not,I'm not in a hurry to transfer it to my account, it`s not going anywhere really.

The debit card through PayPal is great. No need to show more income in the banking system. The government knows enough about our financial situation. Better to leave it in your PayPal account.

Sometimes it's good to wait. In this case, you'll have a bigger amount when you withdraw the amount, which could make a difference. Not a bad idea to wait.

I agree. If I have to pay the fee, better make it worth it.

Good for you. I have tried getting money from my paypal before. Though what I did is to transfer the money to a friends account and then asked him to give it to me.

Yes that's right . You keep that money till there will be no deduction. I am not on many sites so I have to withdraw even the small amount of receive.

I tend to just let my money pile up in PayPal until I want to use it for something.

Congratulations on receiving the payment. I usually just keep the money in the paypal, and use it to buy things online from foreign countries which is using US dollar, unless I really need to use the money. For us, if we transfer the money to our local bank, it has to be over a certain amount, otherwise a fee will be charged. Hence, if I really need to transfer the money, I'd wait until I have enough money in PayPal.
