Payment Option: Paypal?

So I'm not entirely sure if this is the right place for this; seemed more appropriate than the standard subforum. At any rate, on the billing FAQ and subscribe page it says that Paypal is a payment option. Ok, thats neat enough.

How? Really, I can't find the choice to use paypal. When I go to 'Add Payment Option' it just shows Credit Card and only lists four types credit cards. Maybe I'm blind but I simply do not see anywhere on this site that allows the use of paypal. What's worse is I know people who have used paypal to activate and subscribe with.

Does anyone know the, apparently secret, process to this? :(

    This option is only available when making a purchase of Cryptic points or setting up a subscription.

    And what if one wants to stop using a credit card and change to paypal? I don't understand why it wouldn't be available. It's the same amount of money either way and cryptic gets paid.

    Besides which, I tried making a new account just to see if there was some special circumstance like that; and it too did not have paypal as any sort of option anywhere.

    Basically you will have to cancel your current subscription (you can choose an option to retain paid time) and then select a new subscription. Once you have a new subscription chosen with Paypal it may take up to 24 hrs depending on your bank, and your location for the transaction to post.

    Ok, that makes sense and I understand that. What I'm saying though is I did in fact make a new account and only credit card was available to it as well. Why wouldn't paypal show up there?
