No. PayPal payment is only been used as pre-payed payment. You are charging your account with money from PayPal and this one will be used as “Your Credit”. Monthly payment is only possible if you have entered a credit card.

Hello there,

You can add the credits at any part of the month. There are restrictions on that, however, you will need to ensure that you have enough funds available to cover the charges on the 1st of every month to prevent a billing hold on the account.

We accept pre-payment using PayPal but you cannot use it as your primary payment method.

When using PayPal, your account balance will update after your payment is processed, which often takes several hours due to PayPal’s processing. PayPal also sometimes holds payments for up to 72 hours, meaning PayPal has received your money but hasn’t sent it to us yet, but the payment will still apply once PayPal releases it.
