    I've bought a few items on avforums and users are always requesting payment by paypal gift. thing is I don't have it on my personal account.
    I upgraded to a premium account and still nothing. I have currently a balance of e1.50. Do I need to transfer more money to my account or is it a uk only option?

    thanks

    From what I can tell, it's just a way of designating a payment, to avoid the recipient having to pay fees. It leaves the buyer unable to start any kind of dispute though, so I would advise you never send this kind of payment, or you're wide open to abuse.

    I would also imagine the payment cannot be made from a credit card, only from cash balance, as credit cards would attract fees for Paypal to pay, and they're not likely to foot that bill all on their own.
