The problem is that Facebook does NOT allow you to pay by Paypal REAL money.

I DO NOT HAVE a credit card and never will and they do not give you the option of using the money you actually have in your Paypal account. It ALWAYS askes you to add a credit card.

That effectively ends this game with me.

You can buy FB credit gift cards at wal-mart and a few other stores

I know but I can't find anywhere on FB where you can enter the card code to be able to use them.

Also this is what I find on FB in the credit help section...

What are the default payment methods that PayPal will draw from to pay for Facebook Ads?
PayPal will fund the Facebook ads payment from the payment sources on file in the order below. You can make changes and designates a specific payment method as the "Backup Funding Source".

1) PayPal Balance – will always be the Primary Funding Source.
2) Instant transfer from your bank account (if eligible)
3) PayPal Credit (Bill Me Later, PayPal Plus Card, or Buyer Credit)
4) Debit card
5) Credit card


So they LIED about using your paypal balance as the primary source...geeez what else is new. Nothing like trying to get us more in debt.

The thing is I have all the REAL money I need but no way to spend it on this game....and I will NEVER get a credit card.

Hi,
I can't post an outside link here but here's how i found it......
on FB Click on "Account" then "help centre". In the search box type in "How do I redeem my Facebook Credits gift card?". You should then see the exact same words in one of the FAQ's listed there. Click on it and you will see the link that takes you to the place to enter your pin code.

That will help but I feel sorry for those that can't use this option ( disabled). BTW they sell FB game cards in Shoppers Drug Mart also.

You CAN still use paypal.
On facebook take this path:
account->account setting->buy more->paypal is selected as first choice

it comes up with the page to login to your paypal account.

Yes it does come up with a paypal selection but if you sign into your Paypal account a pop up comes up telling you to add a credit card to proceed. There is no option to bypass this so if you have a credit card that is where they take your money..NOT THE REAL MONEY BALANCE.

If you have no credit card attached to your Paypal they say to add one..NO OTHER OPTIONS available.

So get a credit card or don't use Paypal...

oh. i would not trust that. i wonder if the gift card selection still works without a credit card. i don't currently have a gift card or i'd try it out.

Go to the Help Center in Facebook and Search for "PayPal problems" The first item it brings up has a link for a form to send to Facebook. Send that in with your problem and see what they say. Since they had just added a big chunk of games to this system I am sure there are bugs that they haven't seen. Some are able to use direct payment from amount in their Paypal account or direct from their bank accounts and others aren't. This is clearly a problem with their system.

I will not pay anything to FB in order to play a game I am willing to pay outright. I was quite happy with paying using PayPal but since that is no longer an option I won't be buying any more FarmTown cash either.

Love all of the other options though!

Paypal is an option.
