PP Express - Phone number?

Is there a way to pull the customer's phone number and populate it on the order screen? Mainly because my site requires a telephone number during the checkout process, and if the customer was to come back at a later date to order with their account vs PayPal express then they'd be able to go through it w/o having to input more information. Just wondering.. thanks

dang.. too late for the edit

another reason for the phone number is for FedEx purposes.. FedEx requires a phone number with each delivery

Re: PP Express - Phone number?

Perhaps another checkout option would be better under those circumstances?

Re: PP Express - Phone number?

well I've got Linkpoint available and had the regular PayPal but want to take advantages of the Express option (not only that it works 100% of the time but also the fee-less transactions until May).. its not too much of a hassle to contact the customer but it would be a nice addition if it populated itself if the customer had a phone number available

If you have your PayPal account set up (in your PayPal's profile for Selling Preferences) to require the customer's telephone number, then it will be passed back to Zen Cart and show up wherever it is normally displayed.

Thanks Dr Byte! I'll be sure to have this changed on my PP account tonight
