Paypal Question

Options
Hi,

Firstly, apologies if this is a stupid question!

I was wondering if it's possible to overpay a mortgage via a paypal account? Or do you have to transfer the money to a bank account and overpay from there?
I've never had a paypal account, but will need to soon for bubblews and possibly swagbucks.

    There should be no charges to withdraw funds from PayPal into your bank account.

    But there are fees - these are removed at the point at which the money enters your Paypal account...
