Paypal IPN and Express Checkout

[tcustomgolf]

Do not see it....using express, the attached screenshot shows what I get...just a link to sign up.

Try that link on the left that starts with:
Sign up for a PayPal Account

... is there a credit card form hidding in there?

[tcustomgolf]

There is....but it forces the creation of an account on Paypal. Some posts mention that you can just pay by cc w/o creating an account with Express. I guess not true for express, but is for IPN....

I am not sure what version you are using of ZC or PP, but that is not what I see

Check out what my customers see, you can easily pay with a CC or login to PP

i'm having the same problem...maybe it's something we have to fix in paypal? I turned on PayPal Account Optional but that didn't seem to work. Any ideas?

Glad to see I am not the only one...

vegascoug, are you getting that screen using the paypal express module, or the paypal IPN module? I do get that for the IPN....express makes the user create an account though.

PayPal Express, I stopped using IPN once I discovered this. It's an awesome feature, made my customer (and her customers) much happier, and it is the best of both worlds if you ask me.

I got that image by clicking on the PayPal Express checkout button this morning while running a test to make sure.

It might be a PayPal setting, have you read all the docs on this in ZC support? I followed the steps by the letter to set up PP Express and ran the June Patch (that fixed some things). You also have to remove both IPN and Express and then re-install them after the patch, as per the instructions.

Remember to write down the settings before you remove them because you will need them when you re-configure it.

Have you applied the patch? I think that did some major changes

Just been setting paypal express up myself.

I saw this thread and just wanted to ask vegascoug if this is really what his customers see on the first page when they get sent to paypal?

with the site i'm setting up the customers see's a much smaller link on the left:

Don,t have a Paypal account?
No Problem: continue checkout
