So, if I chose to pay a bill via PayPal, how does this work? Do I need to 'deposit' the funds in advance, do I need to make the transfer AFTER getting a message from PayPal, do I need to setup a link from PayPal to a bank account so it is automatically paid?
Finally, has anyone had problems with UNAUTHORIZED withdrawals by PayPal?
Thank you in advance.

In my experience, digital wallets, like PayPal, Venmo all work on a real time basis. In other words, the funds must be in your checking account real time or the app will notify you the bank denied the request. It’s happened to me before, so I just go over to my banking app move the money into my checking account and use the PayPal or Venmo process again and it works fine all in real time. Hope this helps!
