Add Paypal to Apple Pay?
Asked in one thread but think that it is better to have a separate thread.
In this article is is mentioned that
But to my understanding this integration is only for using Paypal for itunes purchases, not adding paypal to Wallet the way you do when you add a credit card.
So there is no way when one can use mobile payment via NFC or within the app and charge is posted to PayPal, not to the card. Right?
Secondary question - when payment is done via Paypal, what MCC is used? Is the MCC determined by PayPal or by the recipient?

You can link PayPal to SPay for example and use it like a card (which then links to the default account attached for PayPal purchases).

But I don't see the option for Apple Pay similarly.
PayPal typically uses a MCC attached to the merchant being used and not of PayPal itself which I have found helpful.
