It's quicker than entering your credit card details and address again and again.
When you use a 3rd party payment provider like PayPal it does a really good job of forcing all of this to be automatic compared to things trying to autofill custom forms just because it's integrated by the site instead of the user. MFA hell is starting to erode that actually being easier though and now there is more and more often no simple approach left.
Still, PayPal is an absolute last resort for me.
