similiarly as to authorize net.

Basically, PayPal keeps the authenticated/validated credit card information on file on their server. Any funds exchanged are done so via PayPal's payment processing. Your merchant account and/or normal payment gateway (e.g. Authorize.net) never enter the picture... Funds are moved from Their account into Your PayPal account.
