Question for the experts

SilentHill · #1 12-31-2014

Okay so I see that walmart has the option to checkout with paypal. My question to you will be. Does paypal see the information being inputed on the walmart site.

as far as shipping address

seems to me that it doesnt. Transactions show up as walmart.com

No PayPal cannot see the information on Walmarts side

Usually, you can even pick up at Walmart.

Wait, really? They won't see the shipping address put into Walmart?

are you as excited as me?

I would just add that this method should be used WITH CAUTION! I wouldn't try it on a NEW account. The account should be VERIFIED. And the amount of money should be relatively small. Also, don't try to buy gift cards using PayPal - that is a great way to get your account banned instantly.

A year ago there was a ton of threads about suspended accounts from buying on walmart or being refunded by walmart.

No, no, no.

Settle down.

Look over the forum here. Do you see it over-loaded with posts about the greatness of this method.? Not really.

It is an absolute Proceed with Caution.

Walmart cancel transactions ( and sometimes ) give no notice.

This means the paypal account in question gets flagged as funds get returned.

And here's one to make you want to be so very careful. This was on an experiment we did.

A banned address turned up on a tansaction. It was on a tester account .

Read carefully what I said. Not sure if it was something to do with Walmart in WA state but.....

SH, i would suggest the usual advice of spread the options to cash out.

Okay but I am using a never before been used shipping address. That I have access to. If the transaction doesn't show up for PayPal why would it matter what you bought from the Walmart website?

And maybe no one has came across this. I dunno. I'm always trying to create new things is why I would try this.

yankee · #11 12-31-2014

search this forum. Tons of threads about walmart and paypal problems.

Target?????

So what's the point of making a thread title Question For the Experts?

You got given great advice and 'you dunno'?

You dunno you are keen to risk your account? ah carumba.
