Papal Express landing page

Is there anyway I can set the landing page to Credit card payment in Paypal Express? My current landing page is the Paypal Login page. Thank you.

Are you referring to the payment page or the page you are directed to after you clear the shopping cart payment page/Paypal button (which takes you to Paypal)

I mean the landing page on Paypal, not any of the Zen cart pages. The payment page which I land on Paypal right now is the Paypal login page with a 'Pay with Debit or Credit Card' link at the bottom. I am wondering if we can directly land on a page with the Credit Card payment on the top in Paypal.

Last I checked Paypal controls that. And they've been changing how the login responds... and looks with my carts

It could be PayPal express really doesn't want you accepting credit cards because they don't make as much money on credit card transactions.

Also, payment using credit card w/o a paypal account will only work 10 times per email address, then PayPal requires an account to be created. That is not 10 times @ your site, it is 10 times anywhere. If you happen to be the 11 use and you advertise "no paypal account required", you might have a grumpy customer and/or lose the sale. There is an exception to the 10 uses rule. A $2500 transaction requires a paypal account period.

By default Zen Cart does automatically tell PayPal to display the "pay without an account" section.
But, if your PayPal Business Account isn't configured to use it, it will go to the other mode.
And, if your customer's browser already has a PayPal cookie on it (ie: they've paid with PayPal from that computer before) it may also go to the other mode.

To ensure your PayPal Business Account is enabled to accept payment-without-an-account:
Log in to your PayPal Business Account.
Click on Profile.
Choose Profile and Settings
Click on My Selling Tools
Next to Website Payment Preferences, click Update
Under PayPal Account Optional, set it to On
Click Save.

It seems quite likely that many customers nowadays are ending up "grumpy"!
So if I want to offer credit card payments to customers INTERNATIONALLY, what is the best way forward?
