Paypal Express Checkout as a Guest was created by Christos Valsamidis
How can i activate the Paypal Pay as a Guest in the checkout?





Now Paypal forces guests to make a Paypal account

"Create a PayPal account
And pay with your debit or credit card"

I used the trick i saw in joomdonation.com/forum/membership-pro/43....html?start=10#48699

but this takes me directly to the "Create a PayPal account And pay with your debit or credit card" tab

The Paypal account is Business and the PayPal Account Optional was ON

It has to do with MembershipPro because if you visit my website now,
93.174.125.46/~essensteam/index.php?lang=el

i made 2 extra paypal buttons (with a plugin)

Add to Cart
and
Pay Now

If you click on them you will see that Credit Card is Accepted with no Registration in paypal.

So it has to do with your paypal plugin..

Hi Christos

I think I understand your problem now. Our Paypal plugin is not Paypal Express Checkout payment plugin:

1. The one comes with the extension by default is Paypal standard Paypal payment. it will redirect customers to Paypal to process payment.

2. The other is Paypal Pro (credit card payment) which allow customers to enter credit card information directly on your site to process payment

So if you want to use Paypal Express Checkout, you will have to find a different extension as we don't have support for Paypal Express Checkout at the moment. In that case, we will refund the money of your purchase

Regards,

Tuan

Hi Christos

I am not sure, it depends on what you want. If you purchase the Paypal Pro payment plugin, I think you should enable the original Paypal payment plugin and the new Paypal Pro payment plugin so that :

1. Customers want to pay by credit card can choose Paypal Pro. They will then enter credit card information directly on your site to process payment

2. Customers want to pay by Paypal account can choose Paypal standard payment option. They will be redirected to Paypal for processing payment

However, I think the credit card options should still be available with the original Paypal standard payment plugin. I would suggest you to try to contact Paypal to ask them about it

Also, you can send me the link to sign up page so that I can try !

Hi Christos

You need to have Paypal Pro account in order to use Paypal Pro:

1. Paypal Pro only available for US, UK and Canada. So you can only have a Paypal Pro account if you are from one of the three countries

2. Paypal charges you monthly fee if you want to use Paypal Pro

Your setup is incomplete (the Gender field is required but there is no option to choose from, so I could not test Paypal standard on your website yet)
