Avoid Aliexpress via Paypal. All, yes ALL, transactions are being processed by Paypal as cash advance! Resulting in Credit Card Issuer inflicting a cash advance transaction fee + accrual of daily interest as high as 28% APR! No way to resolve and all three companies (CC, AE & Paypal) will circle jerk the finger pointing of who is responsible with no solution. Reddit is exploding with many customers getting hit with these fees in the tune of 10's and even 100's of dollars. Avoid!!!

Paying the balance early in Pay Monthly won't violate the terms.

Remove your PayPal account from eBay payment first. Now after making a purchase, it will redirect you to PayPal, pick 'pay in 4' from there.

I got the email too indicating it's over for me but my purchases are safe. Many were probably waiting for the BF deals to take advantage of the deal or, like me, to complete the $1250 spend. Oh well. I'm glad I got a grand in by prepaying a utility.

Ugh
Just goes to show, great deals never last, you would think I would have learned by now.

I made one small purchase but had a couple large ones lined up that I just hadn't gotten around to buying yet.

I snooze, I lose
i hear you but its been sporadic frankly, i had it not show up at all, suddenly it does show up, then doesn't work, says too many attempts then gone - like two days later works.

i was able to do two transactions and then it just went away completely.

Placed an order near noon today and it's still showing 20% worth of points pending. Might be one more going forward but they can easy just take the pending points away.
Did your offer for the promo on PayPal show complete now?

Terms have changed. No longer PER TRANSACTION.

It's ONE transaction (which happens to be limited to $1250 as well), but only ONE now, as of an hour or two ago, but retroactive back to midnight. Enjoy! PayPal is really making an impression on everyone.
Ive purposely used apple pay these holidays, the supposed benefit of paypal was the protection but i think theyre getting rid of that or its onky 30 days now. Honestly, from what ive read across the internet, i woukdnt be surprised if one of the benefits of this promo for them was the data collection for new users. They really put us through the ringer. The onky other thing they could have done is come to our house and do a dna test. Everything was repetitive too, i dont know, kind of seemed like they didnt want us to use the dealt. Blocked our cards and claimed they were denied, called the bank, nope.when it finally did work on of our accounts, it froze and considered every refresh a time used. Hours of time wasted everyday. Respect to anyone who got in on the deal but the ones going over and using all the points, paypal rewarding them is a slap in the face to me

Why you spreading misinformation. 5% is still in the promo
Not misinformation

Are you one of those people I was talking about that doesn't read? Must be.

I said it's NOT in the TERMS. See that? TERMS, right there:

https://www.paypal.com/us/campaig...ffer-terms 5% is GONE!

And NOW, since I posted a little while ago, they have also removed 5% from the offer screen and updated the wording there to reflect it's for only ONE transaction.

Read.

It used to be 1.5B points before today right?

"Get 20% on up to max $1,250 spend on a single transaction. Up to 2B points available"

I can't be the only one still confused about this. I got the limit reached email too. The previous offer under rewards that said expire 12/31 is now gone. I made a $1200 purchase a few days ago. That transaction is safe.

However, I now have an offer under rewards with the new single transaction terminology with an expiration date of 6 days. This means I can make one new purchase within the next 6 days and I'll get 20% back right?

If you open it and it says "saved", you can use it. If it says "completed" you are done. See my very recently posted screenshot.

Why is that funny? Using it for bills you need to pay instead of the shiny thing? I used the promo to prepay $1000 on a utility bill. If the county allowed payments that way, I would have happily used the promo on property taxes. Sounds SMART, not funny to me.

Quote from Formula1GP :
It says BEFORE today. Doesn't sound like it'll cove any purchased made today 11/26/25.
I worried that at first also since I made a big purchase early morning. But you can read it two different ways. And since my points from today didn't disappear, and still show 20%, I'm inclined to believe the way to read it is that the ONE transaction limit that is retroactive to this morning only starts counting those transactions starting this morning, which makes a lot of sense, because there was no limit on the number of transactions yesterday, which they said would be honored under the original terms.
