    red flag How do I show that my paypal takes credit cards?

    Is there something I am missing in the module or is the error in my paypal business account?

    I have these cheezy thingies: [We accept:"My Card"(blue) "My Card" (red)]

    How do I make sure people know they CAN pay with CCs?

    Thanks - (from the Extreme Novice!)
    Thanks so much!

    Customers can pay via credit card thru paypal without a paypal account?
    You'll have to activate it through your account at paypal. And paypal has several paypal logos showing that cc's are accepted.

    I think they have to get a paypal account but can use thier cards. At least I know that I have had people use cards when I had a premium paypal account.

    Okay - well - then the question is how do I put that info/logo that paypal has (that we accept cc's) IN there then? and the cheezy 'my card' thingies GONE?
    Thanks so much!

    I use Website Payments Standard, and you have the option to allow
    payment with credit card without a PayPal account. I think customers are asked at the end of the process, if they'd like to sign up with PayPal. PayPal has a demo you can watch.

    There's several options, depending on where you want to put your paypal logo.
    And if you want to put in the code they supply, or just show the image.
    I've put the image in a banner sidebox, and changed the heading to read
    PayPal Verified on the box (in includes/languages/my_template/english.php).

    Hope this helps!

    Okay - that is what my module is set on, but there is nothing on the payment page (step2 or 3) that lets them know that my paypal can take credit cards - so if they don't have paypal or have an aversion to it, I don't want them to think it's the only option. Does that make sense?

    You are not using a form that has fields to fill out ON your site for CCs though, right only through paypal....

    A demo - one for ME the site owner to watch on how a customer is prompted to use CCs or sign up for paypal? I'll have to look for that....but it's for me right not the customer?

    Well, you see the paypal logo isn't really the thing, although I would like to use it and put on the front home page (as well as the payment pages) that we are paypal verified - I REALLY ALSO want to let the customers SEE the credit cards they can use and use CCs.

    Okay - admitedly - all I can say is "HUH? Where do I find that?" I really am a total novice. My cart got 'built' then handed to me and I know nothing. Thanks for the help....

    Anyone else can jump in and help share the load of this novice too - so that TShooter doesn't have to mentor me alone....
    Thanks so much!

    You can see the demo by going to PayPal's site here https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/we...erview-outside
    and click See Demo.

    Customers would see the option to pay by cc when taken to PayPal to pay.
    You would need to let them know that info somewhere on your site.
