Pre Approved Payment (PayPal)

Hi, i am integrating PayPal Pre-Approved Payments into my website and i am struggling to find an answer to a query i have.

My users can make donations (pre approved pledges) to various Charity events, such as running a marathon. IF the marathon is ran, the API makes a call to processes all of the Pre Approved Payments (pledges), but what happens IF:
 
A - the donator does not have any funds in their PayPal account
 
B - the donator does not have any funds in their PayPal account but they have a credit card linked to their account
 
C - the donator does not have any funds in their PayPal account but they have a bank account linked to their account
 
Thanks in advance to any help you can give on this...

When I use my PayPal account, money in the account is the first choice, then my bank account and, finally, my credit card.

If there is no linked bank account: money in the PayPal account, then the credit card.
