In an email from PayPal Credit I see mention of a credit card:
Nothing really around that I can find apart from a coming soon page on their US site (although the link starts on the UK FAQ page) https://www.paypal.com/us/digital-wallet/ways-to-pay/credit-services/paypal-credit

I assume that they are changing their T&Cs to cover the eventuality of introducing such a card ...Debt Free Wannabe by 1 December 2027

I had this email and was puzzled by it. I use PP Credit to spread the cost of getting occasional large items interest-free, I am currently paying off the cost of my new freezer when the old one kicked the bucket. Is this credit card replacing PP Credit or is it an additional service?0

Looking at the US site it seems to imply it'll be part of your PayPal Credit account.I use PPC too sometimes it's very handy with the intrest free option over £99.00.As MikeyPGT says they're maybe just planning to bring a card to the UK.When I buy something on eBay with my mobile PayPal doesn't even appear in the list of options now (it's under "more options" if I scroll down) so I guess PayPal are looking to get more business.0

If whatever you're looking at to buy go down to payments accepted if PayPal is visible then your option will appear but if they've unticked it they don't use it0

The physical PayPal CC (here in the UK) is a Mastercard, so will be accepted wherever Mastercard is accepted (which is everywhere).TimeLord1 said:accepted if PayPal is visible then your option will appear but if they've unticked it they don't use it0 -
Yes, it should, but if you sell or buy from certain online sites, some have a tick box option to remove specific payments. I just got the PayPal cards, very simple process like Monzo.0

I ordered a physical card for my PayPal credit account a few months ago. Took a few weeks to arrive. I can't seem to activate the card online, and my account still states they will let me know when it ships (even though I already have it). Can't be bothered to give them a call to get it sorted as I wasn't really going to use the card anyway. It is a Mastercard though... 🤔

On my PayPal credit there is an option for virtual card but no physical card.

On your PayPal open the card, it should say activate the card using it in shops you will need to enter pin first if it was a contactless version.
You must activate your physical card once you receive it before you can use it. You can do this by going to PayPal.com and logging into your account or opening your PayPal app and going to your PayPal Credit account. It will require you to enter the CVV number, the three-digit number on the back of your card.
