1) you have to make sure Paypal is not a saved method of payment in your wallet. If so, go into your account and remove it
2) When you are in checkout, uncheck the box that says Remember Paypal as a payment option.
CHASE CARDS NOT ELIGIBLE
Here is what was sent to my message folder on Paypal. Not the A.I. chatbox.

I have checked your account and see that there is a purchase with Walmart.com for $XXX.xx USD using Pay in 4 and it is completed.Please be assured you are eligible for offer and you will get the points for it. Also, I would suggest you to not make the complete payment at this moment to avoid any issue with the offer. You can make the complete payment after 14 days. |

A. Yes, there have been a large number of recent reports on Reddit, particularly from US customers, about incurring $10 (or 5%) cash advance fees when using a credit card through PayPal for purchases on AliExpress.
Here is a breakdown of what the reports indicate:
* The Nature of the Fee: The extra charge is a cash advance fee, not a standard PayPal or AliExpress transaction fee.
* Who is Charging the Fee: The fee is reportedly being added by the credit card companies/banks that process the transaction, not directly by PayPal or AliExpress.
* The Cause: Users suspect a "technical glitch" or misclassification where the transaction, which is processed through PayPal using a linked credit card, is being mislabeled by the payment processor (Aliexpress/Alipay/PayPal) as a "cash advance" instead of a "purchase." Cash advances typically incur higher fees and immediate interest.
* Who is Affected: This seems to primarily affect US customers using a credit card via PayPal on AliExpress. Customers using a PayPal balance or a linked debit card do not seem to be affected, as those transactions are not considered credit card cash advances.
* Resolution: Some users have reported success in contacting their credit card company and getting the cash advance fee and associated interest waived or reversed, but not all banks have agreed to do this.
In summary, while the fees are real and widely reported, they are technically cash advance fees levied by the credit card issuer due to how the transaction is being coded/processed, not a new standard fee from PayPal or AliExpress.
If you are planning a purchase on AliExpress and are a US customer, you may want to consider using a PayPal balance, a debit card, or paying directly with a credit card (bypassing PayPal) until this issue is resolved.
Would you like me to look up information on how to dispute a cash advance fee with a credit card company?
I tried a Visa Virtual & a Vanilla Debit Gift card and neither worked. Trying to maximize the play here.
I went to the Exxon Mobil site and put $400 worth of gift cards in the cart. It allows PayPal so I enrolled the City card. It was approved for Pay in 4. Three of the $100 payments will post by December 31, triggering the $75 statement credit.
I needed the gas cards for upcoming trips anyway. I've had other gas cards breached but not Exxon.
I'm serious. That's an amazing credit card.
I'll wait for some reports of cashing points out before buying so much in GC.

The term Thank You in the title probably threw me off
