Paypal and Play store insecure? - General Questions and Answers

Have you seen this?
https://www.reddit.com/r/paypal/com...thenticate/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x
Quoting from the link:
"WARNING: Google Play store does not authenticate Paypal accounts.
I discovered this: I was using Paypal as payment method in Google Play store. A friend of mine also added Paypal as payment method in Play store, but entered my email address and my phone number (with my blessing). My friend was then able to make purchases without entering any Paypal password...!
So basically: If you are using Paypal in Google Play, anyone who knows your email address and phone number can use YOUR Paypal account to buy stuff in Google Play.
You should log in to Paypal and disconnect Google from your Paypal account."
Has anyone tested if this is true?

[Q]Transfer Google Play Balance&Purchases To Other Google Account

HI,
I have a google account with google play where i redeemed a gift card i won sometime ago. However, that is not the account for google play and email that i use the most and that i want to use, so i was wondering if its possible to transfer the play store balance to other account and purshaced apps also?
I have been using 2 accounts on my phone, but i have to switch it up sometimes and poweramp is one of the apps i bought and it gives me a validation of purschase error sometimes and i think it might be because the account that i used to purshace it with (the one with the gift card balance) is not always selected as main account on the play. So i just wanted to have everything in one account.
Is this possible?
Thank you!

Google Pay and PayPal

Is it possible to use our smartwatch with Google Pay and PayPal?
When ever I try this the configuration on the watch it leads to a dialog on my smartphone which expects a credit/debit card number.
The Google Pay App on my smartphone knows the PayPal Account/card, I payed with it yesterday and it worked.
Greetings
You can't use Google Pay with Paypal, you can only use a bank card from a supported bank. Paypal in Google Pay is only for digital and online purchases.

Google play has out dated paypal account

Hi I tried to pay Canary mail using paypal account. I got a splash screen from google play saying paypal failed to go through. I changed my email address with paypal over 2 years ago. Do I have to delete my paypal account with google play and add a new one.
P.S. I have never paid for anything on google play, the bank detailds have changed and their is no way on Canary mail to update my new card only update the espiire date and the CVC
This means I can't pay for canary mail using my out dated card and I can't pay using paypal because google play has an out dated email address.
Tried add a new card on Canary mail. When adding an address and post code. the post code section only acepts numbers. I live in the UK and post codes use both numbers and letters.
Provinice drop down box only has american states. Maybe Canary mail only works in America?

If your PayPal account was changed, you need to add that account to Google Play.
