A unique, randomly generated 4-digit Expanded Use number accompanies the charge. Unfortunately, we cannot expedite this process nor can we email Expanded Use number to you.If you have online access to your credit card account, check your statement online after three to four business days to get the Expanded Use Number.If you do not have online access or if your credit card issuer does not supply the Expanded Use Number online, you must get the Expanded Use number from your paper credit card statement.This process helps maintain a secure online environment for all PayPal members.
