Can I have both Express Checkout and Website Payments Pro?

Can I have both Express Checkout and Website Payments Pro, or is it one or the other? Does anyone have experience if there are more or less problems with one or the other, as I have been having ongoing issues with checkout going to PayPal and I'm trying everything I know to try and fix this issue. Thanks for any advice you can give.

If you're asking if you can have both PayPal Express Checkout and PayPal Website Payments Pro, the answer is no. You use one or the other, but not both.

Sorry, ScriptJunkie is incorrect.

You CAN have both.

In fact, if you wish to use Website Payments Pro, you MUST also have Express Checkout. That's PayPal's terms.

This is true for v1.3.9 and v1.5.0 and newer.

But further discussion of your "paypal issues" should be continued in your other thread on that topic, not split off into another one here.

Woops! I was in v1.50 mindset when I answered this. Should have checked the post more carefully to see which ZC version he was asking about. Sorry about that!
