Is Firefox using my Paypal log-in details to log retailers in automatically?

Firefox Password autofill

I use an online retailer to buy birthday cards and gifts - Moonpig.com. Whenever I choose Paypal as my payment option, it logs me directly into my Paypal account without me entering any details. I have several Paypal accounts and want to choose which one to use. I have no saved payment details on Moonpig's site and having checked, they say that somehow my browser is logging me in automatically. That's Firefox and I want it to stop.

I have no issues with Firefox storing log-in details but I should be able to choose which Paypal account I want to use.

Any thoughts please? UF

It looks like there is a cookie that keeps your login details. Try to remove Paypal cookies. You can also configure Firefox to open Paypal in a separate container, to keep your cookies out of Moonpig.

Thanks for the speedy reply. I've followed the links to check out the articles and think this will work. My only issue is that the article on Containers refers to menu options I don't see when following the steps.... still a bit confused therefore as to how this works. Thanks again UF
