With a seemingly endless catalog of items and fast and convenient delivery options, Amazon has become the name most synonymous with online shopping. Amazon’s ordering system allows you to choose from a variety of payment methods, including credit cards, bank accounts, and even rewards points.

While most people associate PayPal with shopping on eBay or making peer-to-peer money transactions, the online payment service can also be used during the Amazon checkout process in place of any of the payment methods mentioned above.

The easiest way to use PayPal to make purchases on Amazon is via the PayPal Cash Mastercard, a debit card that is directly linked to your balance. As long as you have sufficient funds in your PayPal account, this card can be used as a payment method during the Amazon checkout process.

The Cash Card is free to access for most PayPal users. No credit check is required and you can top up your balance in a variety of ways, including direct deposit and bank transfer.
