Can I buy crypto with PayPal?

To buy crypto with Paypal, you must use your PayPal Cash or Cash Plus balance or a linked debit card or bank account. You won't be able to use a credit card. This is similar to other cryptocurrency exchanges and apps. You can hold the crypto you buy in your PayPal account, but you can't transfer your purchased crypto off the PayPal platform.

Can a PayPal user own a cryptocurrency?

Bitcoin — and the other crypto coins being offered — are under the custodianship of the company. Therefore, PayPal users can only indirectly “own” their crypto.
