PayPal billing help

A PayPal automatic payment stores a merchant authorization inside PayPal.

Where to check

  • Open PayPal Settings, then Payments.
  • Select Subscriptions and saved businesses or Automatic Payments.
  • Open the merchant entry to see contact information and payment method details.

Where to cancel

  • Cancel the automatic payment inside PayPal if PayPal is the active billing agreement.
  • Also cancel inside the merchant account when the merchant still controls the subscription.

Refund or review route

  • Contact the merchant first when you recognize it. If it looks unauthorized, use PayPal Resolution Center or your payment provider according to their current rules.

Proof to save

  • PayPal transaction ID
  • Merchant name
  • Automatic payment status
  • Cancellation screenshot
  • Merchant support replies

Warnings

  • Canceling the PayPal billing agreement may not close your account with the merchant.
  • Policy may vary by country or account type.
