Paypal credit through discover.

So I've had a PayPal Smart Connect account for a little more over a year, and during that time I've recieved a few credit increases that brought it from a $300 cl - $1200 cl.

I have better lines of credit and havent used it in a while. 

Last month I got a huge suprise! A cl to 2500 for no apparenty reason, and they sent me a card in the mail.

I wasn't sure what the point of it was since the only place I have ever seen process paypal was home depo.

I was wondering if (and hopeing that) paypal would start there own credit processing and compete with the big 4.

 

However it seems they are going to offer processing through discover.

It definetly suppried me since I always though of paypal having a really good relationship with discover. 

 

Not sure how I feel, I like discover but am not a fan of paypal. I'd definetly rather them compete with the other 4.

My understanding is that I can use any paypal source, so maybe even a bank or credit card?

 

Any thoughts? I thought it interesting.

My ultimate credit wish,
a JP Morgan Palladium card

Not sure what its called. Just says payment card. Its under In-store checkout of my Payment preferences. 

 

Feel free to ask them. They just sent it to me, so I'm not sure though. Never used it either.
