Q: Can I use Paypal on my iPhone?
I got Paypal figured out on my laptop, but wondering if I can do the same on my iPhone 6S Plus, version 9.3.4? My debit card was 'banned' for security purposes and was really hoping Paypal would be a solution.
iPhone 6s Plus, iOS 9.3.4

The PayPal option will not appear on the iPhone which is why you need to set it up in iTunes on a computer first.
Once its setup for your Apple ID, it can be used anywhere including your iPhone.
When you buy something on your iPhone the payment method that was set up will be used to pay for items automatically. There's no need to select it on the iPhone.
If you have iTunes Credit it will use that first. Otherwise it will use your PayPal account.
