Instead of using Credit/Debit card, i personally use PayPal for online purchases where paypal is supported. PayPal is one of the best solution to receive your payment online or buy services online.
Today i will tell you how to disable pre-approved payments in paypal. before that let’s see what is Pre-approved payment.
What is Pre-approved Payment in PayPal
Suppose you have purchased a domain name and paid amount through PayPal. As you know we have to renew domain name every year, so during payment Paypal Pre-approved payment automatically enable, that mean without your concern your money will be deducted every year for domain renewal.
Same thing happened when you buy subscription based services where you have to pay Monthly/Yearly. Your money deducted through paypal automatically.
This thing becomes frustrated when you didn’t want to renew the service but due to pre-approved enabled, your money deducted without your knowledge.
So let’s stop this automatic renewal charges.

To do this Login to your PayPal Account.
After login, click on Settings icon.
