I am enjoying using my Paypal Mastercard to pay for my postage and earn the 1.5% back.
OK. I got brave and used it to pay for a purchase from a major corporation over the phone. No problem.
My question is: The transaction is not showing up on "My Account". When I use it at the Post Office, my payment shows up immediately. Isn't the same with anyone I pay?
Do big companies hold back until a certain day until actually putting the "charge" through? I already called to make sure that the company had actually entered in the transaction on their computers.

Yes, I bought a doll from Danbury Mint and I have already received it. Then I called and made a payment with the Paypal Mastercard. Maybe they only put their charges through once a month?

That's what I'm wondering. Maybe large companies like Danbury's put all their charges through once a month instead of as they occur. In the meantime, I have to make sure that I don't spend that amount in my Paypal account in case they suddenly take it out. At least it isn't a large amount.

I just checked my Paypal account, and the Danbury's transaction is there. Now I have a small negative balance because my funds transfer from checking will take a few days to clear. Will that work out OK once the funds clear?
